About this map

The Cabinet Mountains dominate the high-elevation landscape of Sanders County, where the Kaniksu National Forest and Lolo National Forest converge. This modern survey illustrates the steep drainage patterns of the Vermilion River and the complex network of mountain summits including Grouse Mtn, Cataract Peak, and the namesake Seven Point Mtn. The terrain is deeply incised by numerous gulches such as Lyons Gulch, Cameron Gulch, and Grimes Gulch, which feed into the Noxon Reservoir on the Clark Fork.

Near the river banks, the small settlement of Childs sits as a pocket of habitation along Blue Slide Rd and Childs Rd. The map is particularly useful for identifying high-country trails, such as the Water Hill Trl and Grouse Creek Trl, which navigate the high basins of Grouse Lake, Bear Lake, and Marmot Lakes. The transition from the managed valley floor to the protected wilderness of the national forests is clearly defined by the survey lines and forest service access roads.
