1970 Map of Spotted Bear Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Spotted Bear River winds through a landscape of high summits and deep drainage basins in this 1970 study. The confluence of the South Fork Flathead River and the Spotted Bear River occurs at the map's southern edge, marking a critical transition in the regional hydrology within the Flathead National Forest. This era preserves the primitive access routes of the Bob Marshall Wilderness, where the Spy Mountain Trail (Pack) and Green Mtn Trail (Pack) represent the primary network for forest management and backcountry travel. Notable peaks like Spotted Bear Mountain and Bent Mountain define the high country around Webb Lake and Spotted Bear Lake. The inclusion of a remote Lookout on the crest of Spotted Bear Mountain indicates the fire-watch infrastructure that was essential for protecting these timberlands before modern satellite monitoring became standard.
