About this map

Mount Jumbo and the northern outskirts of Missoula dominate this landscape during a period of modern expansion into the surrounding canyons and flats. The map documents the residential development of Pinegrove and West Riverside along the Clark Fork, where local connectivity is established via the Bandmann Bridge. The urban fringe of the city is clearly marked by landmarks such as the Orange Street Underpass and Waterworks Hill, while the Saint Mary Cemetery provides a focal point for genealogical interest at the town's edge.

Terrain to the north is characterized by a series of steep drainage paths including Spring Gulch, Sawmill Gulch, and Woods Gulch which feed into the Rattlesnake Creek corridor. Higher elevations reveal recreational and infrastructure sites like the Marshall Ski Area and the Peterson Lake Dam on Pilcher Creek. The network of forest roads, including Wildcat Rd and Canyon Rd, illustrates the intersection of wildland and municipal boundaries in western Montana.
