Notably, water carried in the river at its origin will flow across the Canada-U.S. border on four distinct occasions: once on the Wigwam, twice on the Kootenay, and once on the Columbia.
The Wigwam River originates in the Galton Range of the Rocky Mountains in Lincoln County, Montana, at the confluence of Wolverine Creek and Bluebird Creek (approximately 48°58′N 114°51′W / 48.967°N 114.850°W / 48.967; -114.850 (Wigwam River source)).
It flows east and then north, crossing the 49th parallel and flowing in a generally northerly fashion for much of its course prior to making a sharp westerly turn immediately south of Mount Broadwood.
