About this map

The Bob Marshall Wilderness dominates this high-altitude landscape where the Lewis and Clark Range meets the Continental Divide. The terrain is defined by dramatic ridgelines like White Ridge and Moose Ridge, which frame deep drainages such as Grizzly Gulch and the headwaters of the West Fork South Fork Sun River. This area is a significant hydrological crossroads, where the Spotted Bear River flows toward the Flathead basin while other creeks feed the Sun River system.

A network of backcountry routes, including the Continental Divide National Scenic Trl and the Moose Creek Trl, provides the only access through this roadless interior. Significant landmarks such as Slategoat Mtn and Redhead Peak serve as primary navigational points for those crossing via Spotted Bear Pass, marking the boundary between the Flathead National Forest and the Lewis & Clark National Forest.
