About this map

Bannack (First Territorial Capital) serves as the focal point of this survey, illustrating the concentrated mining activity that once defined the first capital of the Montana Territory. The landscape along Grasshopper Creek is densely packed with lode and placer claims, including the Hendricks Lode Mine, Golden Leaf Mine, and Wadams Lode Mine. These mining operations are situated near the town site and its local Cemetery, reflecting a period of intense extraction and settlement within the Beaverhead National Forest.
