About this map

The Clark Fork river carves a significant path through this portion of the Lolo National Forest, dictating the movement of both water and transport in the region. The map highlights the small settlements of Nimrod and Byrne, which sit along the northern banks of the river, shadowed by the rising elevations of Medicine Tree Hill and Mt Baldy. This corridor is a hub of connectivity, where the Drummond Frontage Rd and the W Mullan Trl parallel the river's course.

Moving away from the river valley, the topography becomes increasingly complex with numerous named drainages such as Van Curan Gulch, Genoa Gulch, and Tendoy Gulch. These features, alongside prominent high points like Tyler Point and Harvey Ridge, reveal the intricate landforms that define the transition between the Missoula and Granite county lines. The inclusion of isolated water sources like Moyie Spring and 11N15W14CAC 01 Spring provides specific data points for those studying the hydrology of these mountain slopes.
