About this map

The Beaverhead National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Madison County, where the steep terrain of the Gravelly Range meets the drainage of the South Fork Ruby Creek. Evidence of local ranching and land management is visible through markers like the Redish Sheep Headquarters and Black Butte Cabin, reflecting the area's history of seasonal grazing and forest service operations. The map documents a complex network of peaks and ridges, including Bighorn Mountain and Lion Mountain, which provide the backdrop for numerous water sources such as Wall Creek Lake and Kelly Reservoir. Transportation through this wilderness is facilitated by high-ridgeline routes like the Gravelly Range Road and the Standard Creek Road, which follow the natural contours of the land to reach significant landmarks like Specimen Butte and Cave Mountain.
