1963 Map of Ural Creek

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this topographic study, where the landscape is defined by the significant hydrological changes along the Kootenai River. The map documents the creation of Lake Koocanusa, showing the normal pool elevation following the construction of the Libby Dam nearby. This era represents a major transition for the region, as riverfront terrain was permanently altered by the reservoir. High above the rising waters, Ziegler Mountain Lookout Tower stands as a sentinel over the steep drainages of Barron Creek and Bristow Creek. The network of Pack Trails winding through the mountains, including those near Sheep Creek and the East Branch South Fork Big Creek, illustrates the traditional access routes used before and during the mid-century forest management era.
