2020 Map of Northeast Missoula

About this map

The Clark Fork corridor and the rugged eastern flank of the Rattlesnake Mountains define this 2020 map of Missoula. Rising sharply from the valley floor, Mt Jumbo and Waterworks Hill overlook the growing communities of East Missoula and West Riverside. The landscape transitions from the urban density near the Orange Street Underpass and Saint Mary Cem to the protected expanse of the Lolo National Forest. This survey captures the modern interface of civilization and wilderness, where historical irrigation systems like the Williams Ditch and Quast Ditch once shaped the land. The complex topography is marked by numerous drainages, including Sawmill Gulch and Danny O'Brien Gulch, which connect the high peaks like Woody Mtn to the river valley. Transportation networks are prominent, featuring the Bandmann Bridge and a series of recreational paths such as the Wallman Trail and Rattlesnake Trl.
