About this map

The Fisher River and Thompson River drainage systems define this section of the Kootenai National Forest and Cabinet National Forest as it was surveyed in the mid-1930s. The Great Northern Railway tracks follow the winding course of the Kootenai shoreline, connecting small settlements like Warland and Jennings to the broader rail network. This era shows a landscape managed by a network of fire lookouts and ranger stations, including Big Swede Pk Lookout, Alexander Mtn Lookout, and the Wolf Cr Guard Sta. Local education and community life are marked by remote outposts such as Pleasant Valley Sch and Marnicke Sch. Geologic interest is found at Zonolite Mtn, while recreational or resource-heavy areas are centered around Loon Lake, Crystal Lake, and McMinn Meadows.
