About this map

Lake Sherburne dominates the central topography of this 2014 survey, which covers a section of the eastern boundary of Glacier National Park. The landscape is defined by massive elevations and glacial drainages, including Wynn Mtn and East Flattop Mtn in the south, and the prominent spine of Swiftcurrent Ridge to the north.

The primary corridor through this wild terrain is Many Glacier Rd, which follows the northern shore of the lake and passes the notable Cassidy Curve. Water systems like Swiftcurrent Creek and Kennedy Cr feed into the larger reservoir, while high-altitude basins hold isolated water bodies such as Poia Lake and Swiftcurrent Ridge Lake. This map captures the intersection of park infrastructure and high-elevation Montana wilderness before the centennial developments of recent years.
