About this map

Arrastra Mountain and the surrounding high peaks of the Scapegoat Wilderness dominate this rugged terrain at the intersection of the Helena National Forest and Lolo National Forest. The map documents a landscape defined by significant water systems and topographic extremes, from the heights of Iron Mountain and Daly Peak down to the remote Porcupine Basin. These mountains serve as the headwaters for numerous drainages, including the Mineral Fork and the North Fork Arrastra Creek.

Evidence of human land use is sparse but specific, appearing primarily as the Seeley Lake Lincoln Rd and a handful of trails that navigate the steep contours. A Gravel Pit and the presence of Reservoir Lake near Lincoln Gulch suggest localized industrial activity or water management within the broader protected wilderness area, which straddles the county line between Powell and Lewis and Clark Counties.
