1972 Map of Hoover Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Lewis and Clark National Forest encompasses the high country where the headwaters of several major Montana river systems emerge. This 1972 survey documents a hydrologically significant divide where the North Fork Smith River and the South Fork Judith River begin their descent. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, notably the Musselshell River and its North Fork Musselshell River, which carve through the terrain south of Hoover Mountain. Human activity is primarily represented by a network of historic tracks and paths, such as the Jamison Fork Trail and Jamison Trail, which likely trace older routes through the timber and meadows. The presence of Hoover Spring and various other seasonal springs indicates the importance of reliable water sources for both wildlife and the livestock that once utilized these forest allotments.
