1935 Map of Thompson Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1935

About this map

Warland and Jennings anchor the northern landscape of the Kootenai National Forest in this mid-1930s topographic study. The Great Northern Ry follows the winding path of the Fisher River, illustrating the critical role of rail transport in navigating the timber-rich drainage. A dense network of fire lookouts, including Zonolite Mtn Lookout, Swede Peak Lookout, and Riverview Peak Lookout, crown the peaks, signaling the intense forest management of the era. To the south, scattered rural education centers like the Pleasant Valley Sch and Manicke Sch suggest small, remote communities supported by the Thompson River watershed. The map records a transition from the industrial activity near the railroad to the quiet high-country basins surrounding Island Lake and Lynch Lake.
