About this map

Flathead Lake dominates the southern landscape of this 1990s-era survey, where the north shore meets the delta of the Flathead River. The community of Somers sits prominently at the northwest corner of the lake, serving as a hub for both terrestrial and aquatic activity with its Somers Boat Launch and nearby Somers Sch. Along the western shoreline, the settlement of Lakeside is nestled near the mouth of Stoner Creek, marking a transition from the lower lake waters to the elevated terrain of the northwest.

The map reveals a complex environment of conservation and infrastructure, including the Flathead Waterfowl Production Area spanning the northern wetlands of Kalispell Bay. Historical transportation remnants like the Old Grade and Wharf suggest the area's industrial past, while contemporary features like the Fish Hatchery and Bethel Cem provide essential points of interest for genealogists and local historians tracking the development of Flathead County.
