1999 Map of Northwest Missoula

About this map

Industrial and residential developments meet the foothills of the Lolo National Forest in this late-twentieth-century study of the northwest corner of Missoula. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major transit corridors and water management, where the Clark Fork flows past the West Side Park and an intricate network of irrigation channels including the Flynn Ditch and Grass Valley French Ditch. The presence of the Missoula Fire Technology Center Smokejumper Visitor Center near Johnson Bell Field highlights the region's importance as a hub for aerial firefighting and aviation operations.
