2020 Map of Bonner

About this map

The Clark Fork river serves as the primary corridor for development and transport through Missoula County, shaping the location of settlements and roads. The communities of Bonner, Piltzville, and Turah are concentrated along this valley floor, flanked by the ascending terrain of the Lolo National Forest. This 2020 survey highlights the contrast between the narrow, developed river valley and the deeply creased topography of the surrounding mountains, which are defined by numerous named drainages such as Bear Gulch, Vista Gulch, and Tule Gulch. Elevated landmarks like Bonner Mtn and Moccasin Ridge watch over the valley, while smaller tributaries including Crystal Cr and Greenough Cr carve through the forested uplands. The road network, including Fas 210 and Turah Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, providing access between the valley communities and the more isolated reaches of the surrounding forest.
