About this map

Thompson Falls serves as the focal point of this 2014 survey, positioned where the Clark Fork river is punctuated by a series of hydroelectric developments and islands. The community's local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including the Wild Rose Cem, Fraternal Cem, and View Cem, while the Thompson Falls Airport and a grid of residential streets like Haley Ave W show the town's modern footprint.

The surrounding terrain is defined by the Lolo National Forest, where the landscape rises sharply to Clark Mtn and Elk Point. The hydraulic legacy of the region is evident in the Noxon Reservoir and Thompson Falls Reservoir, with the Main Channel Bridge and Dry Channel Bridge spanning the complex waterways near Steamboat Island. Tributaries such as Ashley Cr and Prospect Cr carve through the timberland, leading toward historical landmarks like Gold Rush Gulch and Mass Spring.
