About this map

The Clark Fork cuts through the northern reaches of the Lolo National Forest, serving as a primary corridor for both natural drainage and human transit. By the late 1980s, the landscape here remained largely defined by its steep drainage systems, including Wilson Gulch and Thompson Creek, which flow toward the river. Resource extraction and recreation are evident throughout the terrain, marked by the presence of tailings and several prospect sites alongside the Slowey Campground near the riverbanks. High-altitude landmarks like Sheep Mountain and Mount Baldy dominate the southern topography, while Wilson Lake provides a rare alpine water body at the head of its namesake gulch. An Old RR Grade following the river reflects the historical rail infrastructure that once moved timber and minerals through this part of Mineral County.
