About this map

The Mission Range dominates this portion of Lake County, where the high-altitude hydrology of the Flathead National Forest creates a complex network of mountain drainages. Significant watercourses such as Porcupine Cr and its Middle Fork Porcupine Cr carve through the steep terrain, while smaller streams like Talking Water Cr and Blue Bay Cr flow westward toward the Flathead Lake basin.

Logistics in this wilderness are defined by the Natl Forest Develop Road 888 Rd and the prominent landmark of Woodward Point. The map illustrates a landscape of protected federal lands where natural features like Boulder Cr and Station Cr are the primary points of orientation. This 2014 survey serves as a modern record of the drainage patterns and land management boundaries within the forest, including portions of t24n r19w and surrounding townships.
