The North Fork of the Flathead flows directly south from the Canadian Border, and makes up the western boarder of Glacier National Park until its confluence with the Middle Fork at Blankenship Bridge. The North Fork is an exceptional West Slope Cutthroat fishery, with breathtaking views of Glacier National Park.
If you're heading out bring some October caddis, rubberlegs, princes, pheasant-tail jigs etc for subsurface offerings
