2017 Map of Creston

About this map

The Flathead River meanders through the expansive Flathead Valley on this 2017 survey, creating a complex network of wetlands and oxbow lakes including Church Slough, Egan Slough, and Half Moon Slough. The landscape is a mix of agricultural tracts and growing residential clusters such as Evergreen and Forest Hill Village. The rural character is preserved in the eastern reaches near the Flathead National Forest and the quiet waters of Lake Blaine. Small private airstrips like Weaver Airport and the Wounded Buck Ranch Airport are scattered across the valley floor, highlighting the region's reliance on general aviation. The map also documents specific local infrastructure like the Ashley Creek Bridge and significant thoroughfares such as Mennonite Church Rd and Columbia Falls Stage.
