1994 Map of Demers Ridge

About this map

The North Fork Flathead River serves as a natural boundary through this landscape, dividing Glacier National Park to the east from the Flathead National Forest and Coal Creek State Forest to the west. This mid-1990s documentation reveals a highly managed wilderness environment where recreational access and conservation intersect. Named features like the Camas Creek Entrance and the Scenic Overlook near the Flathead Bottoms point to the area's development for public use, while the Patrol Cabin near Logging Lake suggests a continued presence of park oversight. To the west, the steep elevations of Winona Ridge and Demers Ridge dominate the terrain, carved by drainages such as Coal Creek and Cyclone Creek. The presence of the Home and Ranch Scenic River corridor highlights the specific land-use designations that protected the river's character during this era.
