1962 Map of Columbia Falls South

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Flathead River carves a winding path through this corner of Montana, anchoring a landscape where river transport once met the steel of the Great Northern railroad. The community of Columbia Falls occupies the northern bend, serving as a gateway to the Flathead National Forest that rises to the east. The map reveals a cluster of social and civic infrastructure including the High Sch, City Hall, and the Drive-in Theater, reflecting mid-century growth. Further south, the presence of the Soldiers Home and a series of dedicated burial grounds, such as Soldiers Home Cem and St Richard Cem, provides significant detail for genealogical research. The valley floor is characterized by agricultural and rural development, punctuated by small community hubs like La Salle and the La Salle Grange Hall, alongside scattered educational sites like the Deer Park Sch and Lake Blaine Sch.
