1989 Map of Beartooth Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Beartooth Plateau dominates this high-altitude landscape, where numerous glacial lakes and alpine streams define the topography of the Shoshone National Forest. The map detail captures a complex network of water bodies, including the prominent Beartooth Lake and the smaller, intricately shaped Island Lake, which serves as a focal point for recreation with its labeled Boat Ramp and nearby Campground. The terrain is punctuated by significant elevations like Bird Mountain and the flat-topped Table Mountain, while the western edge is bordered by the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. This late-1980s survey illustrates a region largely inaccessible to traditional vehicles, relying on 4wd tracks and trails to connect features such as Beartooth Falls and the secluded Becker Lake. The inclusion of specific landmarks like the Corral and Little Campground suggests the enduring use of these highlands for seasonal grazing and backcountry exploration.
