About this map

The Clark Fork river carves through the heart of the Lolo National Forest, anchoring a corridor of historical activity in Mineral County. Along its banks, the small settlements of Quartz, Lozeau, Riverbend, and Westfall mark the primary areas of human habitation, largely following the valley floor. The geography is defined by a dense network of gulches and points, including Smith Gulch, Weaver Gulch, and the prominent Sunrise Point.

Evidence of local history is preserved at the Quartz Cem and across the Quartz Flat, where the terrain levels out near the river. The map details an extensive system of forest roads such as Lozeau Crossover Rd and Quartz Creek Rd, providing access to the higher elevations of Magone Mtn and Quartz Peak. These routes trace the development of land management and recreation within the national forest system during the early 21st century.
