About this map

Lincoln is the primary hub of activity in this northern Rocky Mountain landscape, positioned where the Blackfoot River begins to wind through the valley. The map documents a town layout centered on Main St and MT-200, supported by essential infrastructure like the Lincoln Airport. To the north, the terrain transitions into the forested foothills of the Helena National Forest, where a network of water rights and agricultural management is evidenced by the Grosfield Ditch.

The surrounding geography is defined by a dense system of gulches and creeks, such as Bear Gulch and McClellan Gulch, leading toward the heights of Baldy Mtn. Local history is anchored by landmarks like Tuck Cem and the Cain Ranch Airport, while numerous water bodies including Smith Lake and the Herrin Lakes suggest the area's significance for both natural resource management and outdoor recreation. The road system, from Stemple Pass Rd to Sauerkraut Creek Rd, highlights the connectivity required for this high-country settlement.
