2014 Map of West Glacier

About this map

West Glacier serves as a vital gateway on this 2014 survey, where the Middle Fork Flathead River carves a natural boundary between Glacier National Park and the Flathead National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the steep rises of the Flathead Range, featuring prominent heights such as Belton Point Mtn, Desert Mtn, and Great Bear Mtn. Transportation through this mountain corridor is defined by US Hwy 2, which follows the river's path through Theodore Roosevelt Pass and John F Stevens Canyon. Civil infrastructure is concentrated near the settlement, including the Ryan Field Airport and several forest development roads like Natl Forest Develop Road 546 Rd. The map also details numerous drainages that feed the Middle Fork, including Emery Cr, Remington Cr, and Royal Cr, illustrating the complex hydrology of the western Montana Rockies.
