2014 Map of Bata Mountain

About this map

The Blackfoot River carves a narrow valley through the northwestern corner of this territory, where the Bear Creek Bridge provides a vital crossing near Bear Creek Flat. This 2014 survey documents a landscape defined by the rugged divide between Missoula and Powell counties, characterized by high-elevation landforms such as Blacktail Mtn and Bata Mtn. To the south, Cap Wallace Gulch and the high grasslands of Chamberlain Meadows suggest a region utilized for ranching and forest access. The network of forest service and BLM routes, including Chamberlain Creek Rd and Cap Wallace Rd, reveals the infrastructure maintained for managing these mountainous tracts. Small drainage systems like Warren Cr and Wales Cr define the intricate topography that separates the distinct peaks of Baldy and Lost Horse Mtn.
