About this map

The Mission Mountains dominate this high-elevation landscape, where the Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Geological Survey mapped the protected reaches of the Flathead Indian Reservation. The map documents a complex system of alpine waters, including Lower Jocko Lake, White Horse Lake, and Meadow Lake, which feed the drainages of the Middle Fork Jocko River and the South Fork Jocko River. This late twentieth-century revision illustrates the land's status as part of the Tribal Wilderness and Tribal Primitive Area, designations that emphasize conservation and limited development. Human impact is restricted to a network of a Pack Trail routes and seasonal roads along the river forks, marking the boundary between Lake and Missoula counties. The survey provides critical detail for tracing the hydrology of Falls Creek and Liberty Creek within this protected interior.
