1989 Map of Paradise

About this map

Paradise occupies a narrow strip of land along the winding Clark Fork river, serving as a localized hub for the Burlington Northern railroad. This 1989 survey, prepared for the Bureau of Indian Affairs, details the interface between the Flathead Indian Res and the Lolo National Forest. The geography is defined by steep drainages like Paradise Gulch and Boyer Creek that feed into the river valley. The map documents industrial and infrastructure elements vital to the local economy, including several Gravel Pits, a Gaging Sta on the river, and multiple water tanks positioned near the rail lines. Notable landmarks such as Deemer Peak and Henry Peak anchor the high ground, while the local Cem and various bench marks provide specific points of interest for genealogists and surveyors tracking the development of this river corridor.
