1984 Map of Wards Dam

About this map

The Fort Peck Indian Reservation dominates the southern landscape of this 1984 survey in Valley County, Montana. This high-plains terrain is defined by the winding course of the West Fork Porcupine Creek, which carves through the central portion of the quadrangle. A primary point of interest for local history and water management is Wards Dam, located in the western section of the map. This provisional map, compiled from aerial photography, provides a clear view of the rural topography and land divisions within the reservation boundaries during the mid-1980s, reflecting a quiet era of agricultural and tribal land use.
