About this map

Hematite Peak and Trinity Mountain anchor the high elevations of this Flathead County landscape, where an intricate network of alpine drainages defines the area's geography. The map reveals a cluster of small mountain lakes including Castle Lake, Bradley Lake, and Flotilla Lake, which serve as headwaters for various tributaries. Multiple named summits, from the central Horseshoe Peak to the southern Condor Peak and Spy Mountain, provide fixed points for navigating this undeveloped portion of the Montana wilderness.

Waterways like Cy Creek, Head Creek, and Twin Creek descend from these heights, illustrating the complex watershed patterns of the region. The absence of roads or permanent settlements in this 2011 survey highlights the area's role as a pristine natural environment, where Long Creek and Dryad Creek carve through the terrain without modern infrastructure. This map provides a clear record of the names and locations of these significant topographical features.
