About this map

Wild Horse Island dominates the northern reaches of this Lake County landscape, its steep topography rising abruptly from the waters of Flathead Lake. The 2017 survey reveals a complex shoreline defined by significant residential and recreational development along the mainland, particularly around the settlements of Lindisfarne and Kings Point. To the south and east, the coast is intricately carved into a series of inlets, including White Swan Bay, Indian Bay, and the aptly named Safety Bay.

On the mainland, a dense network of local roads such as Melita Island Rd and Kings Point Rd provides access to private properties and the various peninsulas. Further inland, the landscape transitions toward the high ground of Big Arm, where smaller water bodies like Wymore Lake and Jette Lake are situated. The map provides a detailed view of the modern boundaries and land usage, illustrating the blend of island wilderness and established lakeside communities.
