1966 Map of Lingshire NE

About this map

The Smith River carves a deep, winding path through the heart of this central Montana landscape, defining the boundary between open high-country plateaus and the dense timber of the Lewis and Clark National Forest. In the mid-1960s, this area remained largely undeveloped, characterized by a complex network of seasonal drainages and sharp relief. Notable watercourses like Tenderfoot Creek and Blacktail Creek feed the main river corridor from the east, while the western side is marked by the distinctively named One Two Creek and Mud Creek. The presence of Prospects in the southwest corner suggests localized mineral exploration during this era, set against a backdrop of deep limestone-walled breaks such as Black Canyon. Primitive access is documented through several named corridors, including Indiana Gulch and Cow Coulee, which provided essential routes for ranching and forestry operations when this survey was conducted.
