1977 Map of Cripple Horse Mountain

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this landscape in Lincoln County, where the topography is defined by high peaks and deeply cut drainages. The area is anchored by the prominent Cripple Horse Mountain and the steep Hornet Ridge to the south. Water systems are central to the terrain, with Cripple Horse Creek and its South Fork flowing through the center of the sheet, while North Fork Canyon Creek carves through the southwestern section. An industrial presence is marked by a Gravel Pit near the northern boundary, suggesting localized resource extraction within the forest. The drainage patterns of Warland Creek in the northeast further illustrate the complex watershed of this mountainous region, which remained largely undeveloped forest land throughout the late twentieth century.
