About this map

The Blackfeet Indian Reservation Boundary cuts through this northern Montana landscape, meeting the eastern edge of Glacier National Park near Wild Creek. The settlement of Babb serves as a localized hub near the northern end of Lower Saint Mary Lake, featuring the Babb Sch, a small Cem, and the Babb Airport. The geography is defined by the Saint Mary River and its glacial tributaries like Swiftcurrent Creek and Boulder Creek, which flow between the prominent elevations of Swiftcurrent Ridge and Boulder Ridge. A notable military presence is visible at the Malmstrom Air Force Base Recreation Area on the eastern shore of the lake. The area reflects a mid-century period of recreation and water management, evidenced by the Saint Mary Canal and several campgrounds, including Chewing Blackbones Campground.
