2014 Map of McGee Meadow

About this map

Glacier National Park and the Flathead National Forest converge in this high-altitude landscape of northwestern Montana. The terrain is defined by the Apgar Mountains and the prominent wetland of McGee Meadow, which provides a rare level opening among the steep ridges. The drainage network is complex, with Camas Cr, Fish Cr, and Apgar Cr carving through the mountain slopes toward the North Fork Flathead River in the west. Human passage is largely confined to Camas Rd, which winds through the central valley. A small but significant point of access at the southern edge is the Quarter Circle Bridge crossing McDonald Creek. This area illustrates the late 20th and early 21st-century management of protected wilderness, where natural features like Rubideau Spring and McGee Hill remain primary landmarks within the federal land boundaries.
