1986 Map of Teigen

About this map

War Horse National Wildlife Refuge anchors the northern landscape of this Central Montana survey, surrounding the seasonal waters of War Horse Lake. The settlement of Teigen sits in the southwest, positioned along the historical alignment of the Old Railroad Grade. This transport corridor parallels the winding course of Mc Donald Creek, illustrating how early infrastructure followed the natural drainages of the high plains. The map also documents the transition between Fergus and Petroleum counties. Local land use is indicated by features like the Gravel Pit near the creek, while the hydrology of the area is further defined by Buffalo Creek and the Yellow Water Reservoir in the southeast corner.
