2014 Map of Lone Pine School

About this map

Lone Pine School stands as a focal point in this 2014 record of rural McCone County, where a sparse network of section roads connects isolated homesteads across the Montana high plains. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of multiple creek systems, including Presserville Cr, Coal Cr, and the E Fork Sand Cr. Cultural sites are few but significant for local history, notably the Holy Eucharist Cem located along the western edge of the quadrangle. The township-and-range grid is clearly visible through the alignment of local routes like Austrian Rd and Hubbard Rd, illustrating the systematic settlement of this agricultural region. This map provides a detailed view of the terrain before later developments, showing the relationship between water sources like Wolf Cr and the placement of the area's few early institutions.
