About this map

The St Regis River corridor defines the Northern Rockies landscape on this late-twentieth-century survey, where the Northern Pacific Railroad parallels the river through the settlements of De Borgia and Henderson. This mountain pass environment is heavily shaped by transportation and forestry, showing an Old RR Grade and several forest service developments. A Cem near the river and the identified Drexel (Site) provide specific points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracing early habitation patterns in the Bitterroot range foothills.

High-elevation landmarks like the Up Up Mountain Lookout Tower and Moon Peak overlook the Lolo National Forest, while the southern portion of the map transitions into the St Joe National Forest at the Idaho state line. Remote water bodies such as Hub Lake, Hazel Lake, and Square Lake sit tucked within the ridges, accessible via the Pack Trail network that serves as a reminder of the area's pre-industrial transit routes.
