2017 Map of Ashley Mountain

About this map

Ashley Mountain and the surrounding peaks of the Salish Mountains define this section of the Flathead National Forest in northwest Montana. The landscape is carved by a dense network of waterways including Griffin Creek, Logan Creek, and Taylor Creek, which flow through deep drainage basins. High-altitude features like Lupine Lake and the Ashley Divide provide clear geographic orientation for the high country. The map documents an extensive system of forest transportation, such as Star Meadow Road and Logan Creek Road, facilitating access to remote clearings like Star Meadow. This 2017 survey reflects the modern management of timber and recreational resources within the national forest system, illustrating how forest development roads have integrated with the natural topography of the Flathead region.
