Terrain360 Trail Mapping Partnership

Since 2021 Terrain360 has been recording the rivers and trails of the Lewis and Clark story in 360°, working with the National Park Service and the Lewis and Clark Trust. As of September 2026, the Lewis and Clark map and the Trust’s Mississippi River map on terrain360.com hold 411 trails, 218,787 panoramas and 4,856 miles of capture.

The National Park Service cooperative agreement

Terrain360’s Montana work is done under a cooperative agreement with the National Park Service. On July 6 and 7, 2026, it ran 8.3 miles of the Jefferson River by water to the Missouri headwaters, rode 9.3 miles of bike trail from Missouri Headwaters State Park through Three Forks, and walked the park itself: nine short routes, 4.2 miles, including the plaque quoting Jefferson’s instructions to Lewis.

2027

The agreement’s final season is planned for late May to July 4, 2027: the Missouri from Great Falls to Fort Peck, and at least 50 miles of the Marias River.
