About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the central spine of this wilderness survey, separating the headwaters of the South Fork Flathead River from the tributaries of the North Fork Sun River. The landscape is defined by the high peaks of the Lewis and Clark Range and the Swan Range, where early 20th-century mountain management is visible through a network of remote outposts. Remote outposts like the Big Prairie Ranger Station and Salmon Forks Guard Station indicate the administrative presence of the era, supported by isolated airstrips such as the Big Prairie Landing Field and Meadow Creek Landing Field.
