About this map

The Bob Marshall Wilderness and Flathead National Forest dominate this mid-1960s survey, capturing the high-altitude interface between Missoula and Flathead counties. The landscape is defined by its drainage systems and named peaks, with the prominent Holland Peak standing as a primary landmark above the Rumble Creek Lake. The terrain is crisscrossed by an extensive network of pack trails, reflecting the preservation of this area for non-motorized access.

Remote alpine features like Albino Basin and the Terrace Lakes underscore the isolation of these drainage basins. Tributaries such as Little Salmon Creek and Sappho Creek flow through deeply incised valleys, while high points like Cooney Mountain and Gyp Mountain provide structural anchors to the wilderness topography. This map documents the precise Wilderness Boundary and the primitive transport routes including the Smith Creek Trail (Pack) and the Smoky Creek Trail (Pack).
