1909 Map of Sapphire

About this map

The Sapphire Mountains and the Bitterroot Mountains converge in this high-altitude survey of western Montana, revealing a landscape defined by sharp drainage divides and protected timberlands. The boundary line between Ravalli and Granite counties snakes along the crest of the range, separating the headwaters of the Bitterroot and Clark Fork watersheds. This 1909 edition depicts the early administrative boundaries of the Bitterroot National Forest and Missoula National Forest, illustrating how federal land management was already established in these remote subalpine basins.
