How to Use This Lindsay, Montana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lindsay, 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 Lindsay.

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.

Lindsay is a locality in Dawson County, Montana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 12. The population density is 7.2 people per km². Lindsay is located at 47.2220°N, 105.1534°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP code: 59339.

Lindsay emerges from the vast, golden expanse of the high plains, defined by the steady, unpretentious progression of Upper Sevenmile Creek as it cuts through the earth. It lies 95.8 miles southwest of Williston, ND (from Williston, ND: bearing 229°T), and is situated 22.2 miles west-northwest of Glendive. The horizon is held by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Big Sheep Mountains, while the immediate landscape remains dominated by the sun-bleached grasses that bend in perpetual motion under the weight of the wind. Close by, the stillness of Lindsay Reservoir offers a quiet reflection of the shifting clouds, its surface a mirror for the endless Montana sky that seems to press down with a singular, quiet intensity. To the north, the terrain shifts into the rugged, shadowed depths of Wolf Coulee, where the land reveals a skeletal, ancient architecture of dirt and stone that has long outlasted the ambitions of those who first surveyed these reaches.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Lindsay, where the labor of the seasons dictates the rhythm of the days and the character of the soil. The nearby Montana State Trust Lands provide a sprawling, open buffer that preserves the austere beauty of the prairie, allowing the local economy to remain tethered to the slow, deliberate work of ranching and dryland farming. History here is not found in monuments, but in the endurance of fence lines and the resilience of homesteads that have weathered generations of harsh winters and searing summers. Life in Lindsay is shaped by the quiet gravity of immense distances, where the isolation is not a burden but a clarity, leaving the inhabitants to find their own measure of time against the backdrop of a landscape that asks for nothing and gives only what is earned.

About This Lindsay Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lindsay, Montana. Coordinates: 47.221993, -105.1534. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Lindsay includes the ZIP code (59339), telephone area code (406), county seat of Dawson County (Glendive), and school district assignment (Dawson High School District).

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.
