2020 Map of Edgar

About this map

Edgar sits along the Clarks Fork Yellowstone River, serving as a central hub in a landscape defined by its complex irrigation network. The presence of the Edgar Canal, Orchard Canal, Prosperity-Granite Ditch, and O'Connor Ditch illustrates the vital role of water management in this Carbon County region. To the north, Rockvale Cem stands as a point of interest for genealogists, while the Po in town marks the civic center. East of the river, the terrain rises toward Two Bear Ridge, deeply incised by drainages such as Fivemile Cr and its northern fork. This 2020 survey documents the modern state of these rural Montana waterways and the road network, including Homesteader Rd and the Fromberg-Edgar Back Rd, which connect the river valley to the higher benches and coulees.
