1968 Map of Ovando Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Ovando serves as the gateway to this portion of the Lolo National Forest, where the landscape transitions from the agricultural Flat to the steep slopes of McCabe Mountain and Ovando Mountain. The map illustrates a developed network of irrigation and livestock infrastructure in the late 1960s, including the Kutar Ditch and Hoffland Lateral which pull water toward local agricultural operations. Notable family-named sites such as Murphy Ranch and Jacobsen Ranch anchor the lower elevations, while the Flat Sch and a local Cem indicate the established community presence at the edge of the wilderness. Higher in the timbered reaches, numerous clearings like Mollet Park and Copenhaver Park provide breaks in the forest canopy, often accessible only via a Pack Trail or Jeep Trail. The North Fork Blackfoot River dominates the southeastern drainage, winding through the plains before entering the more restricted canyons to the north.
