1906 Map of Kintla Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1906

About this map

Glacial ice and high mountain passes define the wild topography of this northern Montana landscape, surveyed during the first years of the twentieth century. The Continental Divide cuts through the northeast, separating the waters of the Flathead County side from Teton County. High-altitude glaciers such as Agassiz Glacier and Vulture Glacier overlook a series of long, deep water bodies including Kintla Lake and Bowman Lake. Much of the territory is protected within the Lewis and Clark Forest Reserve, where early human footprints are few and far between. Small outposts and homesteads like Jefferson's Ranch and Adair are positioned along the river valleys, while Butte Well and Kintla Well suggest early resource exploration near the international boundary with the Dominion of Canada. The map also captures the rugged path of the Whitefish Range and named summits like Kintla Peak and Rainbow Peak.
