2020 Map of Trailcreek OE N

About this map

The Flathead Wild and Scenic River defines the southern boundary of this remote wilderness area where the international border separates Montana from British Columbia. This 2020 survey reveals an unpopulated landscape of high-elevation drainages and natural waterways at the very northern edge of the lower forty-eight states. The map captures the meeting point of significant protected lands, including the Flathead National Forest and the northwestern corner of Glacier National Park. The terrain is characterized by the complex hydrography of the Elk Valley region, where several unnamed tributaries flow toward the Flathead system. This document is a primary reference for understanding the modern boundary between the Canada United States of America border and these expansive federal preserves.
