2024 Map of Fishtrap Lake

About this map

The Cabinet Mountains define this high-altitude landscape where the boundaries of the Kaniksu National Forest and Lolo National Forest meet. This montane environment is structured by a complex drainage system, including Fishtrap Creek, Radio Creek, and West Fork Fishtrap Creek. The map documents a network of named peaks and ridges that served as critical landmarks for early forest management and survey efforts. Distinctive summits like Basin Peak, Marmot Peak, and Wee Peak dominate the skyline, while specialized routes such as the Sundance Ridge Trl and Beatrice Saddle Trl provide passage through the high country. The absence of established towns highlights the area's role as a managed timber and wilderness resource, punctuated only by forest development roads like Nat For Dev Rd Rd 7593.
