1959 Map of Warrick

About this map

The Rocky Boy Indian Reservation dominates the northern portion of this landscape, encompassing prominent peaks such as Moses Mtn, Bailey Peak, and Bowery Peak. The high country of the Bearpaw Mountains defines the drainage patterns, where Beaver Creek and Miners Gulch flow through deep canyons. Traces of early 20th-century industry and infrastructure appear at the Silver King Mine and the Upper Dog Creek Sch, reflecting the sparse but established ranching and mining presence in the area. Further south, the terrain transitions into the distinct formations of Tiger Ridge and Haystack Butte. The settlement of Warrick serves as a central point in this transition zone, surrounded by a complex network of ephemeral waterways like Connelly Creek and Birch Creek, which eventually feed into the Big Sandy Creek basin.
