1964 Map of Blue Mountain

About this map

Lolo National Forest dominates the terrain south of the Clark Fork river, showcasing a landscape defined by deep gulches and steep ridgelines. The interior is accessed by the Grave Creek Jeep Trail and various secondary paths, leading past landmarks such as the Lookout Tower atop Blue Mountain and the Chickaman Mine near Chickaman Creek. Along the northern edge, a Gaging Sta monitors the river, while the southern border is traced by Lolo Creek. This 1960s-era survey captures the area before modern expansion, when land use was largely centered on resource extraction and forestry. Numerous family-named features like O'Brien Creek, Hollensteiner Gulch, and Westerman Gulch indicate the early influence of homesteaders and local figures on the geography of Missoula County.
