Description of Wilderness Area or Park

Grizzly bears, wolves, and wolverines radiate from this unpopulated transboundary valley, refreshing neighboring wildlife populations stressed by human settlement. Known as the North Fork in Montana and simply as the Flathead in British Columbia, this broad valley’s gravel roads should not be traveled without spare tires and a patient attitude.
