About this map

The Wigwam River winds through this high-latitude terrain just north of the United States border in British Columbia. This survey captures a drainage landscape dominated by mountain streams and isolated water bodies, reflecting a wilderness area where the topographic relief dictates the flow of several named creeks. Small upland catchments like Teds Lake feed into a network of tributaries including Miller Creek and Rainbow Creek. Further south, Blacktail Creek flows toward the international boundary with Canada, illustrating the hydrologic connectivity across the border. The map is a precise record of the remote back-country waterways that define the Regional District of East Kootenay before they join larger river systems to the south.
