1995 Map of Squaw Mountain

About this map

Two Medicine Lake and its smaller neighbor Pray Lake anchor the northwestern reaches of this terrain, where the Glacier National Park boundary meets the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the Continental Divide, which separates the drainages of Ole Creek and Midvale Creek. The mapping reveals a transition from the protected wilderness of the park to the managed lands of the Lewis and Clark National Forest in the southeast. Evidence of early infrastructure and tourism is visible through labels like the Medicine Road, a Water Tank, and a Boat Dock near the lake's edge. The Burlington Northern Railroad skirts the eastern edge of the mountains, passing through the small siding at Bison and following the contours near Lubec Lake, illustrating the vital rail corridor that has historically linked these mountain passes to the plains.
