About this map

Blanchard Flats and the nearby Blackfoot River dominate the northern landscape of this territory along the border of Missoula and Powell counties. The map illustrates a high-elevation environment defined by peaks like Bata Mountain, Baldy, and Blacktail Mtn, which overlook a network of seasonal and permanent watercourses. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, with the W Fork Bear Cr and E Fork Bear Cr feeding toward the north, while Fish Cr and Little Fish Cr navigate the central valleys.

Transportation through this mountain terrain relies on established routes such as Sperry Grade Rd and Fish Creek Rd. The presence of Bear Creek Bridge and various Bureau of Land Management roads like BLM Rd 2801 suggests an area managed for timber, grazing, or public access. To the southeast, the terrain opens into Chamberlain Meadows near the headwaters of Wales Cr, providing a contrast to the steeper slopes of Lost Horse Mtn and Cap Wallace Gulch.
