1966 Map of Horse Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Kootenai National Forest of northwestern Montana is defined here by a network of pack trails and fire lookout infrastructure during the mid-1960s. The Horse Mountain Lookout Tower stands as a primary landmark at the southern edge of the quadrangle, overlooking the steep drainage basins of Libby Creek and Swamp Creek. This map documents a landscape transitioning toward recreation, noting the Paul Bunyan Campground and Libby Creek Campground near the northern boundary. The terrain is deeply carved by water, with Elliot Creek, Crazyman Creek, and Detgen Creek feeding into the larger valleys. Historical access is recorded through numerous pack routes, including the Fisher Mtn Trail (Pack) and the Libby Divide Trail (Pack), which served as essential corridors for forest management and early backcountry travel before the expansion of modern road systems.
