1965 Map of Gold Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Jocko River and its various tributaries dominate this mid-1960s survey, representing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and vital water resources. As the entire map area lies within the Flathead Indian Reservation, the geography reflects a protected environment where natural waterways like the Middle Fork Jocko River and Pistol Creek carve through the terrain. A notable human modification is the presence of a Canal winding through the valley floor, suggesting early irrigation or water management efforts within the reservation boundaries. To the north, Twin Lakes and Grizzly Creek mark the higher reaches of the watershed. The map also documents the administrative boundary between Lake County and Missoula County, which cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, affecting several drainages including Big Knife Creek and the namesake Gold Creek.
