1958 Map of Circus Peak

About this map

Hungry Horse Reservoir dominates the southwest corner of this wilderness survey, reflecting a landscape transformed by the mid-century impoundment of the South Fork Flathead River. Situated within the Flathead National Forest, the terrain is defined by high alpine summits and a dense network of drainage basins. Notable peaks like Prospector Mountain and Circus Peak stand over a series of narrow valleys where Bergsicker Creek, Lower Twin Creek, and Tanner Creek flow toward the reservoir.
