2014 Map of Flatiron Mountain

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this section of Lincoln County, characterized by the high elevations of the Purcell Mountains. The landscape is defined by a series of prominent summits, including Flatiron Mtn, Sheepherder Mtn, and the distinctive Indian Peak. This drainage network is complex, with the S Fork Yaak River and Pipe Cr carving through the terrain. Small alpine water bodies like Lake Rene and Rainbow Lake are tucked between the ridges. The presence of Pipe Creek Rd and several Forest Development Roads indicates the infrastructure used for land management and access within the national forest. Numerous named drainages such as Flattail Cr and Seventeenmile Cr illustrate the watershed patterns typical of this mountainous region of Northwest Montana.
