Peak in Highland IVlountains. The hunter who stops off at Essex, lands in the center of an excel- lent elk and sheep district, perhaps the best in the northern part of the state. This is on the Middle Fork of the Flathead River. Dickey Creek empties into the Flathead just west of Essex on the south side. Park River flows from the northeast and joins the Flathead about a mile and a quarter west of Essex. In all directions from Essex are found the noble elk. There are both elk and goats on the Middle Fork or Big River, which is touched by the Great Northern at Java. The Big River heads in the Rockies near the upper waters of Sun River. Fine lake fishing may be enjoyed at Stanton Lake, which is one mile south of Garry Siding. Harrison Creek, which enters the Flathead near Rockhill and Harrison Lake, which is situated six miles northeast of Rockhill, is a paradise. Belton on the main line of the Great Northern is the outfitting point for the famous and picturesque Lake McDonald. Fishing is good here at all times of the year. A stage ride of three miles lands the sportsman at the lake. The lake is in the midst of the Rocky Moun- tains, it is nine miles long and three to four miles wide. Its waters are full of trout of the native and Dolly Varden varieties. At the PAGE TWENTY- THREE.
