About this map

Flathead National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in the late twenty-tens, where the peaks of Mt Hefty and Hornet Mtn overlook a dense network of drainage creeks and forest service infrastructure. This corner of Northwest Montana is characterized by a complex hydrography, with Yakinikak Creek and Tepee Creek cutting deep through the terrain. The presence of Wedge Canyon and several named peaks like Cleft Rock Mountain indicate a high-relief environment managed for conservation and timber.

Logistics in this wilderness rely on established routes such as Trail Creek Rd and Tepee Creek Rd. These forest development roads follow the natural contours of the land, providing access to remote sections of the mountains near the Canadian border. The map documents various administrative tracts, including parcels such as PB 41 and PB 40, which intersect with the wild waters of Thoma Creek and Antley Creek.
