2014 Map of Shroder Creek

About this map

The Thompson River carves through the Western Montana high country, defining a corridor of access through the dense timberlands of the Kootenai National Forest and Lolo National Forest. This 2014 survey captures a landscape primarily managed for public use and natural resources, where the jagged boundary between Sanders and Flathead Counties follows the high ridges. Transportation is dictated by the water, with the ACM Rd and Mt 556 tracing the river valley's lower elevations. To the east, the terrain climbs toward landmarks like Bar Z Peak, while the small settlement of Pinehill sits on the eastern edge. Numerous drainages, including Shroder Cr, Murr Cr, and Boulder Gulch, feed into the primary river system, illustrating the complex watershed that supports this region's forest ecology.
