2024 Map of Big Hole Peak

About this map

Big Hole Peak dominates the northern landscape of this region, situated within the rugged Cabinet Mountains and surrounded by the Lolo National Forest. The map illustrates a dramatic topographic transition as the high mountain terrain descends south toward the wide corridor of the Clark Fork. Along this river valley, the small settlement of Weeksville and local roads like Panorama Rd and River Rd W mark the primary areas of human activity and access. To the south of the river, the terrain rises again into the Coeur d'Alene Mountains, where features like Poucher Gulch and Swamp Lake are found. The map is particularly notable for its detailed network of forest trails, including the Big Hole Lookout Trl and Sheep Camp Trl, which suggest a long-standing history of fire lookout service and high-country resource management.
