1970 Map of Una Mountain

About this map

The Bob Marshall Wilderness and Flathead National Forest intersect in this 1970 survey of Powell County's high country. Defined by extreme elevations and primitive access, the area is anchored by Una Mountain and the jagged Cardinal Peak to the south. The landscape is a complex drainage system where Gordon Creek and its many tributaries, including Gabe Creek and Cardinal Creek, carve through the mountainous terrain. Historical land use in this period is evidenced by a network of specialized routes such as the Bartlett Creek Pack Trail and the Holland Gordon Trail (Pack), illustrating how these remote peaks were managed and accessed before modern infrastructure. Geographic landmarks like the Nannie Basin and Bullet Nose Mountain provide specific reference points for those studying the physical history of the Montana Rockies.
