1956 Map of Yegen

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts a wide, braided path through this landscape, defining the agricultural and industrial character of the valley floor before the terrain rises into the southern hills. Agricultural development is evident in the intricate irrigation network of the Eagle Ditch, Hesper Road Ditch, and several other unnamed canals that feed the fields near the Yegen settlement and Hogans. The transport corridor is anchored by the Burlington Northern railroad and proximity to a local Landing Strip, while the community centers around the Montana Bible Institute, Blue Creek Sch, and the Holy Cross Cem. South of the river, the landscape transitions into a series of drainages including Blue Creek, Basin Creek, and Duck Creek, where the map tracks the path of a Telephone Line and Pipeline through the more varied topography.
