1962 Map of Whitefish

About this map

Whitefish serves as the hub for this mountain landscape, positioned where the Whitefish River flows south from Whitefish Lake. The map captures the community's early 1960s footprint, with 1980s updates showing the growth of infrastructure including the Whitefish Golf Club and Memorial Hosp. To the north, the terrain climbs steeply into the Whitefish Range, dominated by Big Mountain and the development of the Big Mountain Ski Resort. This area is defined by its recreation and timber resources, with the Stillwater State Forest and Flathead National Forest buffering the town. Industrial and transportation legacy is marked by the Burlington Northern line winding along the lake's edge near Dog Bay. Local civic life is evidenced by Central Sch, the National Guard Armory, and the Knights of Columbus Shrine.
