About this map

Whitefish Range peaks and high-altitude drainage basins define this portion of the northern Rockies near the boundary of Flathead Co and Lincoln Co. The landscape is characterized by prominent summits like Mount Thompson-Seton and Mount Petery, which overlook a complex network of glacial-fed streams. The Stillwater River and North Fork Stillwater River collect the runoff from the southern slopes, while Whale Creek and Yakinikak Creek carve through the northern drainages.

Evidence of wilderness management and early backcountry access is visible through the Chepat Trail and the division of administrative districts, including the Fortine Ranger District and Glacier View Fortine Ranger District. This 1990s revision reveals the intricate topography of the Flathead National Forest and Kootenai National Forest, showing the remote lakes like Huntsberger Lake and Whale Lake that remain central to the region's geography.
