The mining heritage of the Little Belt Mountains is recorded on this 1961 survey, where the town of Neihart sits at the base of Neihart Baldy along Belt Creek. The landscape is etched with the history of extraction, featuring a cluster of sites such as the Silver Dyke Mine, Broadwater Mines, and Cornucopia Mine north of Poverty Ridge. These labels, alongside industrial markers like Tailings Pond and Mine Dump, point to the intensive lead, silver, and zinc operations that once defined this portion of the Lewis and Clark National Forest.
