About this map

The Flathead River carves a deep valley through this mountain landscape at the junction of the Flathead Indian Reservation and Lolo National Forest. The small settlement of Knowles sits along the northern bank, served by a Ferry crossing that links the river's shorelines. To the south, the terrain rises sharply toward Siegel Mountain and Siegel Pass, marking the divide between the Plains Ranger District and the Ninemile Ranger District. Cultural landmarks like the Gingery Cem and the industrial footprint of a Strip Mine near St Louis Creek reflect the local history of land use and family presence in this corner of Sanders and Missoula counties. The map details a complex drainage system, including the Burgess Creek and Seepay Creek basins, showing how the river serves as the primary conduit for the surrounding high-country runoff.
