2017 Map of Blue Mountain

About this map

Lolo sits at the eastern edge of this Missoula County landscape, where the waters of Lolo Creek and the Clark Fork river converge near the Big Flat Ditch. The terrain is dominated by the ridges of the Grave Creek Range and the high points of Blue Mountain and Black Mtn, much of which is protected within the Lolo National Forest. This 2017 survey details the complex network of drainage and local transit, with named features such as Schoolhouse Gulch and Mailbox Gulch hinting at the rural settlement patterns in the valley. The map documents modern forest access through routes like Obrien Creek Rd and Sleeman Creek Rd, alongside numerous timber and pack trails. The presence of several legacy land parcels, including PB 38 and PB 43, provides a view of property boundaries that persist alongside the vast public lands of the national forest system.
