1963 Map of Mount Marston

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Kootenai National Forest and the neighboring Stillwater State Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape of northwest Montana as it was recorded in the early 1960s. The topography is defined by the massive Gibralter Ridge and Patrick Ridge, which separate a series of steep drainages including Grave Creek, Williams Creek, and the evocatively named Laughing Water Creek. Peaks like Krinklenhorn Peak and Mt Marston serve as primary landmarks for navigation through this wilderness, while a complex network of labeled Pack Trails indicates how the land was managed and traversed by the U.S. Forest Service before modern road development was fully realized. Human activity is sparse but specific, with a lone Mine and a Gaging Sta located along the watercourses, suggesting a focus on resource extraction and hydrological monitoring in this remote corner of Lincoln County.
