1958 Map of Whately

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Milk River meanders in tight, complex loops across this 1950s landscape, illustrating the intricate hydrology of the northern Missouri River Basin. Following the river's northern bank, the Great Northern railroad tracks pass through the settlement of Whately, which serves as a small rail and agricultural node supported by a nearby Substation. The map details early irrigation efforts in Valley County, featuring the Vandalia South Canal and an Aqueduct, which indicate the region's managed water systems for ranching and farming. On the higher ground north of the river, the City and County Airport and the Glasgow Highland Cem sit near the city limits. This survey highlights the contrast between the flat, productive river bottomlands and the rising terrain of Tiger Butte to the south, while tracing the essential transportation and utility corridors of the late 1950s.
