1997 Map of Robinson Mountain

About this map

Robinson Mountain dominates this remote stretch of the Kootenai National Forest along the international boundary between Montana and British Columbia. The high-elevation terrain is marked by essential forest service infrastructure, notably the Yaak Lookout, which overlooks a complex drainage system where the East Fork and West Fork converge into the main Yaak River channel. This 1997 revision of 1960s topography reveals a landscape defined by glacial lakes and steep timbered ridges, including Lake Geneva, Gold Lake, and Plumb Bob Lake. While largely wilderness, the presence of a Gravel Pit and established trails suggests the area's ongoing use for resource management and fire suppression. Notable watercourses like Caribou Creek, Young Creek, and Robinson Creek dissect the mountain slopes, while the 9th Standard Parallel North provides a formal surveying anchor across the forest floor.
