1997 Map of Big Hole Battlefield

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Big Hole National Battlefield preserves the site of a pivotal 1877 conflict, marked here in detail within the Beaverhead National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the steep slopes of Battle Mountain and Wooster Mountain, where the geography of the Nez Perce retreat and the subsequent military engagement is traceable through specific landmarks like the Howitzer Pit. Along the lower elevations, Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail follows the path of the river, passing the legacy of later resource extraction at Dredge Tailings and Borrow Pits.
