2014 Map of Lynch Lake

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates the high country of northwest Montana in this 2014 survey, where the boundaries of Lincoln and Flathead Counties intersect. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses and forest service access routes, including Forest Develop Road 2349 and Lost Prairie Rd. Glacial relics like Island Lake and Lynch Lake are fed by mountain streams such as Island Cr and Coniff Cr. The southern portion of the quadrangle shows the drainage of the Pleasant Valley Fisher River, a critical hydrological feature of the region. This modern topographic record captures the area's transition from traditional forest management toward recreational use, evidenced by named loops like Discovery Loop and established rural arteries like Pleasant Valley Rd.
