1970 Map of Pilot Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The South Fork Flathead River carves a deep valley through this interior section of the Flathead National Forest, representing the landscape of the Bob Marshall Wilderness just as it was formally protected. High-elevation peaks like Pilot Peak and Scintilla Mtn dominate the terrain, connected only by a network of historic routes including the Gordon Creek Trail and Hahn Creek Trail. The map documents early administrative outposts and crossings essential for forest management, such as the Hahn Creek Guard Sta and the Youngs Creek Ford. Distinctive geological features like the Hole-in-the-Wall Cave and the summit of Jumbo Lookout Mountain offer specific points of interest for backcountry researchers and hikers interested in the era before modern satellite mapping redefined these remote contours.
