1999 Map of Saddle Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The Flathead Indian Reservation dominates this mountainous landscape, where the Jocko River and Valley Creek carve through the steep terrain. This area, located at the juncture of Lake, Sanders, and Missoula counties, reflects a rugged geography of timbered slopes and remote water sources like Jocko Spring and Hewolf Creek. The northern portion of the Lolo National Forest reaches into the southern half of the sheet, centered on the prominent peak of Saddle Mountain. Settlement is sparse, with human activity primarily represented by the Nielson Ranch and small-scale resource extraction indicated by Prospects and a Mine. A network of simple travel ways, including Loop Road and various unnamed trails, suggests a landscape utilized for ranching, forestry, and traditional access rather than heavy development during the late twentieth century.
