1962 Map of Hungry Horse

About this map

The Middle Fork Flathead River serves as the dividing line between Glacier National Park and the Flathead National Forest in this 1960s study. The map documents a landscape defined by the convergence of the Middle and South Fork Flathead River, which flow together near the community of Hungry Horse. This river network and the adjacent Great Northern railway shaped the development of the corridor, providing the primary access through the dramatic passage of Badrock Canyon.
