2020 Map of Niarada

About this map

Niarada sits at the convergence of three northwestern Montana counties—Sanders, Flathead, and Lake—marking a point of transition between the high peaks of the Salish Mountains and the broad valley floor. This 2020 survey illustrates a landscape defined by significant drainage features, such as the Big Draw and the more narrow Sullivan Gulch and Deep Draw, which funnel seasonal waters into Sullivan Cr. Local transit is anchored by a network of rural routes including Hubbard Reservoir Rd and Browns Meadow Rd, which provide access to the foothills of the Hog Heaven Range. For those researching regional history, the Niarada Cem stands as a quiet marker of the community's past, situated near the headwaters of the gulches that define the local topography.
