About this map

Byrne and the Clark Fork river valley form the central corridor of this 2017 study, where the landscape is defined by the transition from the river bottom to the high elevations of the Lolo National Forest. The map illustrates a complex network of named gulches and ridges that feed into the Clark Fork drainage, including Van Curan Gulch, Dry Gulch, and McKnight Gulch. These features highlight the deeply dissected terrain characteristic of this part of Granite and Missoula Counties.

Transportation patterns follow the natural geography of the valley, with Mullan Rd and the Drummond Frontage Rd paralleling the river. Higher terrain is marked by significant peaks such as Mt Baldy and Medicine Tree Hill, while the presence of the Mn15w14cac 01 Spring indicates specific groundwater points of interest. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the ridges of the national forest, including Tyler Point and Harvey Ridge, intersected by remote drainages like Teakan Gulch and Moyie Gulch.
