2024 Map of Kofford Ridge

About this map

Niarada sits at the southern edge of this West Central Montana landscape, marking a transition between the open valley floor and the rising heights of the Hog Heaven Range. Much of the northern terrain is defined by the protected boundaries of the Flathead National Forest, where a network of forest service and mining roads suggests a history of resource extraction and timber management. High points like Kofford Ridge overlook a complex drainage system including Sullivan Creek and Little Meadow Creek, which carve through the varied topography. The presence of Flathead Mine Rd pointing toward the interior mountains highlights the region's industrial ties, while local access routes like Browns Meadow Rd and Battle Butte Rd link the high country back to the settlement at the county line.
