About this map

The Bitterroot Mountains define the high-altitude landscape of this 2024 survey, marking the jagged divide between Idaho and Montana. The settlement of Adair sits in the northwest, serving as a gateway to the Hiawatha Rail Trl that follows the winding course of Loop Creek. This map illustrates a heavily managed forest environment where the St. Joe National Forest meets the Lolo National Forest, linked by a complex network of forest development roads and primitive trails like the Malin Ridge Trl and Silver/Dominion Creek Trl.

High summits and ridgelines dominate the terrain, including Dominion Peak, which features the Dominion Peak Lookout, and other prominent elevations such as Wishard Peak and Grays Peak. The hydrology is characterized by steep drainage basins feeding numerous streams like Eagle Creek, Bernier Creek, and Cradock Creek. Hidden within the peaks, Silver Lake provides a rare point of still water in a landscape defined by sharp vertical relief and deep alpine valleys.
