About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the focal point of this high-altitude landscape, tracing the border between Idaho and Montana. On the northern slopes, the Centennial Valley extends across the landscape, drained by Peet Cr and Bean Cr. The transition from the valley floor to the peaks is marked by the Western Centennial Mountains and the prominent Big Table Mountain, which rises above the surrounding Targhee National Forest.

To the south, the topography drops toward the Mule Meadows and the headwaters of E Camas Cr. This area is characterized by steep drainage patterns and breaks, such as the Pete Cr Breaks, which define the upper reaches of Pete Creek. The map provides a clear look at the physical boundaries and water sources, including the isolated Rock Spring, that have dictated travel through the Price-Peet Divide for generations.
