About this map

Kootenai River and Fisher River define the topography of this corner of Northwest Montana, where the Great Northern Railway tracks follow the river's bend near Warland and Jennings. The landscape is heavily marked by early 20th-century forest management and industrial interests, evidenced by the high density of fire observation points such as Alexander Mtn Lookout and Tony Pk Lookout. The presence of Zonolite Mtn points toward the region's significant mineral history, while small rural education centers like Pleasant Valley Sch and McInnis Meadows Sch serve isolated homesteads and timber camps. National forest boundaries for the Kootenai, Flathead, and Cabinet converge here, emphasizing the transition between major wilderness districts and the early road system that would become U. S. Route 2.
