About this map

Thompson River State Forest and Lolo National Forest dominate this mountainous landscape in Sanders County, reflecting the deep integration of state and federal land management at the close of the twentieth century. The terrain is defined by the high crest of the Cabinet Mountains and the Corona Divide, which channel an intricate network of waterways toward the Thompson River.

Evidence of early ranching and valley settlement is found at Stobie Ranch in the northwest, while the rest of the quadrangle remains largely defined by natural drainages like Loneman Creek, Marten Creek, and Mudd Creek. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns from Sears Gulch down to the Little Thompson River, illustrating the topographical complexity of this timber-rich region as surveyed during the 1960s and updated for the 1990s.
