About this map

The Flathead Indian Reservation and Lolo National Forest converge at a high-elevation divide in this 1980s topographic study. The landscape is defined by its dramatic peaks, including Hewolf Mountain and Edith Peak, which mark the watershed for several major drainages. Valley Creek and the North Fork Revais Creek carve significant paths through the timbered slopes, while Hewolf Creek flows eastward from the central heights.

Transport through this part of Sanders and Missoula Counties is limited to historic paths like the Pack Trail and the Sixmile Trail (Pack), reflecting the area's role as a protected wilderness corridor. The boundary line between the two counties and the reservation edge creates a complex jurisdictional intersection on the slopes of Squaw Peak, where the drainage shifts toward Stony Creek and Rock Creek.
