About this map

The Clark Fork river valley serves as the primary corridor for transportation and settlement in this late 20th-century survey of the boundary between Missoula and Granite counties. The small communities of Bonita and Ravenna are situated along the river, which is paralleled by major infrastructure including a pipeline and the Beavertail Hill Tunnels. Much of the southern and central terrain is dominated by the Lolo National Forest, characterized by high-elevation landmarks such as Burnt Mountain and Strawberry Mountain.

Significant recreation and communication points are scattered throughout the landscape, from the Beavertail Pond Fishing Access to the Bonita Beacon Communication Facility. The complex drainage patterns of Brewster Creek and Cramer Creek illustrate the varied topography that defined local land use as the millennium approached. This map preserves the layout of the region before further modern development altered the rural and forest interface.
