2017 Map of Spotted Bear Mountain

About this map

The Spotted Bear River winds through the heart of this high-elevation wilderness within the Flathead National Forest, meeting the South Fork Flathead River in the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. This 2017 survey documents a landscape defined by significant topographical relief, rising from the river valleys to prominent peaks such as Spotted Bear Mtn and Bent Mtn. A network of Forest Service roads, including F S 2850 Rd and F S 10132 Rd, provides limited access to the interior, while isolated water bodies like Webb Lake are tucked into the drainages. The map reveals the intricate drainage patterns of various tributaries, such as Twin Cr and Sergeant Cr, which have shaped the surrounding ridges like Green Mtn and Beaver Hill.
