About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this landscape, showing a complex network of forest development roads that pierce the high timber country of northwest Montana. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks such as Skillet Mountain and Swamp Mountain, separated by deep drainage basins and ridges like Swamp Ridge. Waterways such as Fortine Creek and Twin Meadows Creek form the primary drainage system, carving through the mountainous topography.

A network of numbered National Forest Development Roads, including Natl Forest Develop Road 353 Rd and Natl Forest Develop Road 3522 Rd, provides access to these high-elevation regions. The map also delineates the jurisdictional boundary between Lincoln County and Flathead County, which runs through the northeastern section. This survey is particularly useful for identifying specific creek drainages like Zeller Creek and Cedar Creek within the managed forest lands.
