1962 Map of Beaver Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Whitefish Lake dominates the eastern edge of this landscape, its shoreline marked by points such as Eagle Point and Mackinaw Point. The Great Northern railroad cuts through the terrain, following the valley of the Stillwater River and connecting early settlements like Benson and Vista. This 1962 field-checked survey highlights a transition between the Stillwater State Forest and the Flathead National Forest, where timber and water resources defined local life. Small lakes and mountain features are scattered throughout, including the family-named Thornberg Lake and the prominent Lion Mountain. At the southern end of the sheet, the junction at Twin Bridges and the open area of Round Prairie suggest the importance of the river crossings and early mountain roadways like Blanchard Lake Road for local commerce and navigation during the mid-century era.
