1963 Map of Wolf Prairie

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, defined by a network of drainage systems feeding into Wolf Creek. In the early 1960s, human activity was concentrated along the narrow valley floors, most notably at the French 8 Ranch and the nearby Fairview Guard Station. The map illustrates a landscape of high ridges and peaks, including Sugarloaf Mountain and Redemption Hill, accessed primarily by a primitive Pack Trail. A small Gravel Pit near Wolf Creek suggests localized maintenance or resource extraction during this era. The hydrological pattern is intricate, with Betts Lake sitting as a rare body of still water amidst numerous descending streams like Syrup Creek and Kavalla Creek. This survey provides a record of the remote timber and ranching outposts within Lincoln County before significant modern developments altered the character of these mountain valleys.
