2014 Map of Kootenai Falls

About this map

Kootenai Falls and the Kootenai River dominate this landscape within the Kootenai National Forest, where water management and mountainous terrain dictate the pattern of human activity. The map reveals a complex system of reservoirs and small lakes, including the Troy City Reservoir, Savage Lake, and Schoolhouse Lake, which are linked by a network of forest roads like Bull Lake Rd and Swanson Lodge Rd. High peaks of the Purcell Mountains, such as King Mtn and William Grambauer Mtn, tower over the river valley and the Lynx Creek Flats. Local history is anchored by features like the Larchwood Cem near Milnor Lake, providing a specific point of interest for genealogists tracing roots in this corner of Lincoln County. The presence of the Troy Dam Reservoir underscores the mid-20th-century development of the region's water resources.
