2020 Map of Bernard Mountain

About this map

Boise National Forest encompasses the high country of Valley County, where the Deadwood River and its various forks carve through the mountainous terrain. The landscape is defined by prominent peaks and ridges, including Bernard Mtn and Pilgrim Mtn, with notable geological features like Fin Rock serving as landmarks. The drainage network is dense, with Stratton Cr, Porter Creek, and Bernard Cr feeding into the primary river systems. In the higher elevations, small alpine waters like Bernard Lake and Sheepherder Lake sit near expansive open areas such as Crane Meadow and Bearskin Meadows. This area is accessed by a network of forest routes, including the Stanley-Warm Lake road and the Scott MTN-Deadwood corridor, which follow the natural contours of the river valleys and mountain passes like Deer Creek Pass.
