About this map

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this survey, where the Missouri River creates an indefinite boundary between Roosevelt and Richland Counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of coulees and drainages including Twomile Creek, Cedar Creek, and Charley Creek, which carve through the high plains toward the river valley. The sharp bend at Devils Elbow highlights the river's dynamic path through this region.

Evidence of rural activity and resource exploration is scattered across the uplands, marked by a Drill Hole, a Well, and isolated Grain Bins near the river bluffs. The small settlement of Charlie sits in the western portion of the map, while a Gravel Pit and Dugout Creek in the southeast indicate local land use and infrastructure. This document captures the transition of the Montana landscape during the late 1960s, prior to later 1980s woodland revisions.
