2017 Map of Nimrod

About this map

Nimrod serves as a key point of reference in this mountain landscape where the Middle Fork Flathead River carves through the terrain, separating Glacier National Park to the north from the Flathead National Forest to the south. The area is defined by significant high-altitude features and passes that follow the river corridor, including Theodore Roosevelt Pass and John F Stevens Canyon. This topography reflects the importance of natural corridors for transport and navigation through the Continental Divide region. Away from the river, the map reveals a network of high peaks and basins, from Java Mtn and Red Sky Mtn to the remote Tranquil Basin. To the south, Spruce Park and Spruce Lake mark an area of complex drainage where numerous creeks like Dirtyface Cr and Elk Cr feed into the river system.
