1997 Map of Webb Mountain

About this map

Lake Koocanusa dominates the central landscape of this 1997 revision, reflecting a high-elevation reservoir environment within the Kootenai National Forest. The map documents a rugged section of Lincoln County where steep timbered ridges are punctuated by peaks like Scalp Mountain and Webb Mountain Lookout. Water management and natural drainage are central themes, as numerous drainages including South Fork Sullivan Creek and Boulder Creek feed into the lake. Evidence of resource extraction is visible at a Quarry near Sullivan Creek, while prominent landmarks like Stone Hill and Cliff Point provide clear reference points for navigation through the mountainous terrain. The map's detail is particularly useful for identifying forest roads and high-altitude lookouts used for fire monitoring and land management during the late 20th century.
