2017 Map of Lindsay

About this map

Lindsay serves as the central hub of this eastern Montana landscape, situated at the junction of State Hwy 467 and local routes. The area is defined by a dense network of coulees and seasonal watercourses that carve through the high plains, including the branching paths of Upper Sevenmile Creek and the long reach of Timber Fork. These drainages dictate the orientation of section lines and the placement of rural roads like RD 223. Evidence of water management is visible at Lindsay Reservoir, a critical resource in this arid environment. The terrain transitions into more dramatic relief at Wolf Coulee, where the land drops away from the established townships of t17n r51e and t17n r52e. This survey captures the enduring patterns of ranching and dryland agriculture in Dawson County, where small-scale settlements and natural landmarks like Cigar Creek remain central to local geography.
