2024 Map of Lake McDonald East

About this map

Glacier National Park dominates this terrain, centered on the high ridges and glacial lakes east of Lake McDonald. The map documents a sophisticated network of backcountry infrastructure, notably the Sperry Chalets and the historic Gunsight Pass Trail. These features indicate the long-standing recreational and conservation priorities of the region, where pack trails like the Snyder Lake Trail and Lincoln Lake Trail provide the primary access to the interior. High-elevation peaks such as Gunsight Mountain and Edwards Mountain overlook a landscape carved by water, featuring numerous vertical drops including Beaver Chief Falls and Feather Woman Falls. The southern portion of the sheet is defined by the expanse of Harrison Lake, fed by Harrison Creek, illustrating the complex drainage patterns from the continental divide toward the western valleys.
