About this map

Triantler sits at the base of the Grave Creek Range in this Missoula County landscape, where the mining industry has left a significant imprint on the terrain. The southern portion of the map is defined by the drainage of West Fork Lolo Creek, a corridor where various resource extraction operations were concentrated. Prospectors and historians can trace the locations of several named workings, including the Lawyers Combination Mine and the Lolo Creek Mine, which suggest a period of active mineral exploration along the gulches and creek beds.

Waterways like Bear Creek and Deep Creek carve through the high ground, while landmarks such as Telephone Butte and Potato Gulch provide orientation within the drainage system. Transportation through this part of the Lolo National Forest area is facilitated by established routes like Bear Creek Rd and Ele Meadows Rd. The presence of Schoolhouse Gulch near the Woodman Mine hints at the small, localized communities that once supported the labor of these mountain mines.
