About this map

The Clark Fork river carves a significant path through this section of the Lolo National Forest, where the mountain terrain is defined by steep ridges and numerous gulches. Small settlements and points of interest like Quartz, Lozeau, and Westfall are positioned along the river corridor, which also serves as the primary artery for transportation. The landscape rises sharply from the riverbanks to high points such as Magone Mtn and Quartz Peak, with the notable Verde Saddle and Sunrise Point providing geographic orientation within the surrounding peaks.

Local history is anchored by sites like the Quartz Cem near Quartz Flat, suggesting the long-standing presence of the community in this timber-rich environment. A complex network of Forest Service roads, including National Forest Development Road 144 and the Verde Creek Road, winds through the drainage basins of Trout Creek and Sunrise Creek, illustrating the intersection of natural topography and managed forest access in Mineral County.
