2014 Map of Niarada

About this map

Niarada sits at a critical junction of geography and political boundaries where Sanders, Flathead, and Lake counties meet in northwest Montana. The settlement is positioned along MT-28, surrounded by a landscape defined by significant topographical depressions and rising peaks. To the north and east, the Salish Mountains and the Hog Heaven Range overlook the valley floor. Large natural drainage features such as Big Draw, Deep Draw, and Sullivan Gulch dictate the local movement of water and travelers alike. Local history and genealogy are anchored at the Niarada Cem, while the network of mountain roads like Browns Meadow Rd and Battle Butte Rd suggests the enduring routes used by the ranching and timber communities that inhabit these foothills.
