About this map

The Whitefish Range dominates this portion of the Flathead National Forest, characterized by high ridges and a network of drainages including Big Creek and Skookoleel Creek. The terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Dead Horse Ridge in the north and the Smoky Range to the southeast. A focus on seasonal recreation and forest management is evident through the inclusion of the Warming Hut Loop (Snow) and the Forks Lookout station.

Infrastructure in this area is primarily composed of forest development roads and specialized trails like the Danny On Memorial Trail near Big Mtn. The map also captures the paths of Forks Patrol and the Smoky Range Nrt, providing a detailed look at the access routes through Nicola Ridge and the Kinnimiki Creek drainage. These labels reflect the ongoing role of the U.S. Forest Service in maintaining the backcountry and high-elevation routes of Flathead County.
