2011 Map of Cook Mountain

About this map

Cook Mountain anchors the southern portion of this landscape, overlooking a complex network of waterways and forest service roads. The Thompson River flows through the southwestern corner, joined by various tributaries including Bear Creek and Chippy Creek. This 2011 survey reveals the modern administrative layout of Flathead County, dominated by the intricate forestry road system including routes such as 881, 882, and 883. The drainage patterns are well-defined by features like Broken Nose Gulch and Big Rock Creek in the north, showing how the terrain directs water toward the primary river valley. These labels represent a landscape shaped by both natural hydrology and the infrastructure required for contemporary timber and wilderness management.
