About this map

Flathead National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape in the Whitefish Range, where the terrain is defined by steep ridges and narrow creek drainages. The geography is anchored by notable summits like Mt Hefty and Cleft Rock Mtn, connected by prominent landforms such as Tuchuck Ridge. A network of watercourses including Thoma Cr, Antley Tepee Creek, and Colts Cr carves through the mountains, providing the primary drainage for this part of Flathead County.

Accessibility is limited to established corridors like Trail Creek Rd and Tepee Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the valleys. This survey illustrates the protected status of the land, showing how forest development roads like Natl Forest Develop Road 1665 Rd provide access for resource management. The lack of permanent settlements and the prevalence of landmarks like Seemo Pass and Wedge Canyon underscore the wilderness character of this region near the Canadian border.
