. Biennial report, Montana Game and Fish Commission, State of Montana. Montana Fish and Game Commission; Game protection; Wildlife conservation; Fisheries. tooET Of The Montat. View of Crater Lake, Highland Mountains. Continuing west on the main line of the Great Northern, come the counties of Flathead and Lincoln. This is the extreme northwest- ern portion of the state. The eastern boundary of Flathead County is reached at Summit Station, which, as the name implies, is situated on the crest of the Rockies. From here the railroad follows the Flat- head River and its tributaries, to Columbia Falls. Good trout fishing is obtainable within walking distance from any of the stations and sidings between these two points. This entire section of Montana is favored with large and small game of all the native varieties, while trout vary- ing in size from the twenty pound Dolly Varden to the six-inch fry of the native black spotted variety are plentiful in the waters of the num- erous lakes and streams. Both Flathead and Lincoln Counties contain large areas of timbered districts which are watered by hundreds of streams and lakes. The lakes in these two counties outnumber several times over all the other bodies of water in the state, varying in size from the majestic Flathead Lake, to hundreds of large ponds. During the past two years Flathead and Whitefish Lakes have been stocked with Lake Superior whitefish. PAGE TWENTY-TWO.
