About this map

Quartz and the surrounding Mineral County landscape are defined by the winding course of the Clark Fork and a history of mountain extraction. This 2011 survey documents a corridor of transit and industry, where Mullan Rd E and the modern interstate follow the river valley through the Quartz Flat area. The map reveals a dense network of mining activity tucked into the gulches and along the ridges, including the Lucky 7 Mine, Joe Doris Mine, and the uniquely named X-Ray Vision Mine.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Quartz Cemetery near the river bend, while recreational footprints are visible at the Trout Creek Campground and Quartz Flat Campground. The terrain rises sharply from the water to landmarks like Magone Mountain and Sunrise Point, with numerous forest service roads like Sunrise Rd and Meadow Creek Rd providing access to the high saddles and interior drainages of the Bitterroot range.
