2014 Map of Hash Mountain

About this map

The Flathead Valley provides a sharp contrast between the dense residential and agricultural development on the valley floor and the ascent into the Flathead National Forest. This landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring dozens of named water bodies like Lake Blaine, John Lake, and Swimming Lake. The lower elevations show a dense network of local roads such as Bachelor Grade and Mennonite Church Rd, reflecting a settled rural community. Moving east, the terrain rises into the Swan Range, anchored by the peak of Hash Mtn and the long spine of Peters Ridge. Historical land use is evident in features like Jessup Mill Pond and the Creston Cem, while the southern edge of the sheet includes the community of Bigfork near the shores of Echo Lake and its Firemens Island.
