1965 Map of Clinton

About this map

Clinton serves as the focal point for this 1960s study, situated where the Clark Fork valley meets the rugged drainages of the Lolo National Forest. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the era, specifically the dual rail lines of the Northern Pacific and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific which parallel the river. Local industry is clearly mapped through several active extraction sites in the eastern hills, including the Belview Mine, Triangle Mine, and the optimistically named Hidden Treasure Mine.
