About this map

Tiger Butte overlooks a dissected landscape of winding coulees and intermittent drainages in this mid-century survey of Valley County. The settlement of Wheeler occupies the southeastern corner of the quadrangle, serving as a landmark near the sprawling Charles M Russell National Wildlife Range. The map documents a rural environment shaped by the Missouri River basin's development, featuring the Newton Sch and a network of pipelines traversing the high ground. Numerous water features, including Tiger Creek, Dogie Creek, and Dry Lake, illustrate the drainage patterns into Galpin Coulee and Fullerton Coulee. This 1958 field-checked record, later photorevised in the 1970s, captures the territory just as large-scale wildlife conservation efforts began to define the Missouri River's northern breaks.
