According to the GNIS [1] the name of this river is just "Clark Fork" not "Clark Fork River".Kmusser 14:46, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Geobox, map, edits
I've added a geobox and new map. There are some differences between the stats given in the geobox and those in the main text -- they are due to the differing ways to define the river. The USGS GNIS length is only up to the Silver Bow & Warm Springs confluence and only down to Lake Pend Oreille, so is shorter than the "total length". Drainage area differs for the same reasons.
I also created a footnoted references section, but have yet to convert the older links to that style. Also I assume some of the external links could/should be footnotes to specific statements in the main text. I'll try to get around to cleaning up. For now, whew! Pfly 02:32, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
