Mullan Road in Lewis & Clark County Found!!!   Participants of the National Mullan Road Conference in Helena May 21-22 researched and toured the route of the lost Mullan Road as it entered Lewis & Clark County and turned north to Fort Benton. Unreported for years, the route was traced on the conference tour and will be mapped through continuing research. An all around win for Lewis & Clark County, the conference was a rewarding experience for all. THANK YOU!
