2011 Map of Bannock Pass

About this map

Bannock Pass serves as a critical point on the Continental Divide along the border of Montana and Idaho, marking a historic crossing in the Bitterroot Range. This 2011 survey illustrates a landscape defined by its complex drainage systems, where Horse Prairie Creek and Nip and Tuck Creek flow through the northern reaches. The area's topography is dominated by prominent elevations such as Grizzly Hill and deep carved features like Black Canyon. Transportation through this high-altitude corridor is anchored by Railroad Canyon Rd, which follows the natural path of Canyon Creek toward the pass. Small-scale topographical details, including Mollies Gulch and Hood Gulch, provide specific points of interest for those studying the physical geography and ranching access routes of Beaverhead County.
