2017 Map of Noxon

About this map

Noxon serves as the primary settlement on this portion of the Kaniksu National Forest, situated along the northern banks of the Cabinet Gorge Reservoir. The landscape is dominated by the steep drainages and high summits of the Bitterroot Mountains, including Huckleberry Mtn, Loveland Peak, and Stevens Peak. Water management and transportation define the local geography, as seen in the wide expanse of the Clark Fork river as it transitions into reservoir pools. The Noxon Bridge and the Railroad Rd corridor provide vital crossings and transit routes through this complex terrain. Numerous gulches and creeks, such as Hemlock Gulch and Pilgrim Cr, cut through the forest, leading toward the Noxon Reservoir and Marten Creek Bay in the south. Local landmarks like the Noxon Cem and Old Trail Point offer points of reference for those tracing the community's footprint within the national forest boundaries.
