About this map

Beaver Creek Sch and Rock Creek Sch stand as the primary community hubs in this rural Fergus County landscape, mapped as it appeared in the late 1960s. The terrain is defined by the intricate branching of the Beaver Creek and Rock Creek systems, including the West Fork Beaver Creek, Middle Fork Beaver Creek, and West Fork Rock Creek. These drainage patterns dictated the placement of early 20th-century rural infrastructure, from the Beaver Creek Cem on a ridge above the water to the various Gravel Pits and a solitary Mine located in the southern uplands. Land use is further illustrated by a major Pipeline cutting across the northern half of the quadrangle and numerous springs, such as the cluster of Springs near the northern border, which provided essential water sources for the cattle ranching operations that characterize this part of Montana.
