1965 Map of String Creek

About this map

Flathead National Forest and the northern reaches of the Bob Marshall Wilderness dominate this high-country landscape, where the absence of established land lines in the 1960s highlights the region's primitive character. This terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses and elevation markers, centered around the confluence of Bunker Creek and its many tributaries. Isolated water bodies like Late Lake and Otor Lake are tucked between prominent summits including Tranquil Mountain and Chipmunk Peak. The map provides a detailed view of the early Pack Trail system that served as the primary means of navigation through these drainage basins before modern access. Notable water features like Middle Fork Bunker Creek and Gorge Creek carve through the steep topography, illustrating the natural watershed patterns of Flathead County prior to later development or administrative changes.
