About this map

Stobie Ranch marks a rare point of private settlement within the expansive timberlands of northwest Montana during the mid-1960s. This survey illustrates the intricate drainage systems of the Lolo National Forest and the State Forest, where the Thompson River and its numerous tributaries like Little Thompson River and Loneman Creek carve through the high country. The landscape is dominated by the Corona Divide, which dictates the flow of water across the quadrangle.

Industrial and recreational access is defined by a network of Pack Trails and primitive roads, including a significant Private route near the ranch. The absence of established towns highlights the area's primary use for natural resource management and watershed protection. Researchers can trace the path of numerous small streams such as Partridge Creek and Mudd Creek, which flow through the steep valleys between named peaks.
