2011 Map of Lost Horse Mountain

About this map

Lost Horse Mountain and its surrounding drainages in Lincoln County are defined by a complex network of US Forest Service transportation routes. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey and U.S. Forest Service documents the management of these public lands through a hierarchy of roads, including Natl Forest Develop Road 6718 RD and Natl Forest Develop Road 6062 RD. The landscape is a hydrology-dense area where numerous tributaries like Yodlin Creek, Beaver Creek, and Fowler Creek descend from high ridges such as Beetle Hill. A significant water feature, Turner Falls, is situated along Turner Creek, marking a notable elevation drop in the northern section of the map. This era of mapping emphasizes the intersection of natural topography and the forest development infrastructure necessary for land oversight in Montana's remote interior.
