Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Surface Water Supply of the United States, 1907-8, Vol. 6: Missouri River Basin
The headwaters of Marias River rise on the eastern slope of the main divide of the Rocky Mountains at an elevation of over feet and ?ow in an easterly direction through a region of elevated plains and prairies. Marias River proper is formed by the union of Cutbank and Two Medicine rivers, which meet at the eastern bound ary of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. From this junction to the Missouri, which it enters 14 miles below Fort Benton, its length is about 110 miles and its fall does not exceed 5 feet per mile. Its principal tributaries are Willow and Cottonwood creeks, which enter from the north, and Teton River, which comes in from the south.
