About this map

The North Fork Blackfoot River carves through this Powell County landscape, marking a boundary between the Lolo National Forest and Helena National Forest. The map details a transition from the mountainous high ground of Echo Mtn and Echo Pass in the northeast to the broad, level expanse of Kleinschmidt Flat in the southwest.

Hydrological management is evident through historic waterworks like Jorgenson Ditch and Old Lund Ditch, which redirect flow across the basin. Local landmarks such as Madison Meadow and Deer Park provide clear points of reference for those studying land use and property lines near Coopers Lake. The network of forest roads, including Cooper Blackfoot Rd and Warren Creek Rd, reveals the primary access routes into the timber and high meadows of the Montana Rockies during this era.
