1983 Map of Todd Lakes NE

About this map

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation encompasses this entire portion of northeastern Montana, where the prairie landscape is defined by the winding drainages of the Missouri River watershed. In the northern reaches, Cottonwood Creek cuts through the high plains, while the central and southern portions of the sheet are dominated by the deeply incised valley of the East Fork Wolf Creek. This 1983 provisional survey captures the area as it transitioned from earlier manuscript drawings to modern topographic standards. Human activity is sparse across these sections, marked primarily by a remote Airstrip and the surveyed boundary separating Valley and Roosevelt counties. The map provides a clear record of the section-line roads and unimproved trails that supported the ranching and tribal lands during the late twentieth century.
