1963 Map of Banfield Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this topographic survey, revealing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and deep drainages. The terrain is centered on Banfield Mountain, where a Lookout Tower once served as a critical vantage point for forest management. This 1963 survey, later updated with photorevisions in the early 1980s, captures the intricate network of pack trails and watercourses that shaped local access before modern road development became widespread. To the north, Lost Soul Mountain and Lawrence Mountain stand as prominent landmarks above the South Fork Big Creek. The map documents a transition in wilderness utility, from the traditional navigation of a Pack Trail to the introduction of a Spring Road. Remote water features like Blue Lake and the various forks of Bristow Creek highlight the drainage patterns of the Purcell Mountains within this section of Lincoln County.
