Explore Lindisfarne, Montana, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lindisfarne, Montana. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Montana or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lindisfarne.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Lindisfarne occupies a quiet expanse of land defined by the expansive, glacial reach of Flathead Lake, which lies only seven miles from the center point of the settlement. It lies 27.0 miles south of Kalispell, MT (from Kalispell, MT: bearing 172°T), and is situated 8.5 miles north-northwest of Polson. The landscape surrounding Lindisfarne rises in deliberate, heavy shifts of earth, where the soil holds the chill of the long Montana winters and the scent of pine needles carried down from the distant, serrated silhouette of the Mission Mountains. To the east, the terrain yields to the dense, disciplined timber of the Swan River State Forest, while the immediate periphery is defined by the open, unmanaged grasses of the Montana State Trust Lands. In the late afternoon, the light here loses its sharpness, turning the shadow of the landscape into a deep, bruised violet that clings to the ground long after the sun has retreated behind the western ridges.
Lindisfarne developed through the slow accumulation of homesteaders and timber crews who found the proximity to the water and the timbered slopes a practical necessity for survival. The economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the seasons, shifting between the light touch of summer tourism and the rigorous, solitary labor of forestry and land management. Residents often track the turning year by the flow of Dayton Creek, which cuts through the lower elevations with a persistent, percussive sound that breaks the stillness of the valley floor. History is not recited here so much as it is worn in the weathered wood of local outbuildings and the deep ruts of old logging roads that wind toward the higher, more secluded reaches of the basin near Weythman Gulch. Life in Lindisfarne moves with a deliberate, singular gravity, favoring the steady work of the day over the noise of the outside world.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
