2017 Map of Saddle Mountain

About this map

Jocko Valley serves as a prominent geographic corridor in this western Montana landscape, where the Jocko River and Spring Cr converge. The terrain is defined by significant elevation changes, rising from the valley floor toward the heights of Saddle Mtn and the southern reaches of the Reservation Divide. A complex network of drainage systems, including the N Fork Valley Cr and E Fork Valley Cr, carves through the timbered slopes of the Lolo National Forest. This 2017 survey documents the rural road infrastructure that services the region, notably Old Dixon Rd and Schall Rd, which trace the low-lying areas near the river. The map also delineates the meeting point of three counties—Sanders, Lake, and Missoula—providing a clear view of how political boundaries follow the natural topography of the mountain ridges.
