1994 Map of Blodgett Mountain

About this map

Blodgett Mountain and the surrounding high peaks of the Bitterroot Range dominate this 1994 survey, documenting the primitive landscape within the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness. This high-altitude terrain is defined by a series of glacial cirques containing alpine waters like Mill Lake and Fred Burr Lake, which feed the drainages flowing east and west from the continental divide. The map provides a detailed look at the jurisdictional overlap where the Nez Perce National Forest meets the Bitterroot National Forest, marked by the dividing line between Idaho and Montana. Navigation across this wilderness is limited to a network of primitive routes, including the Pack Trail near Printz Ridge. Genealogists and hikers can trace the historical access points to remote summits like Shattuck Mountain and Frog Peak, as well as the transition from the Stevensville Ranger District to the Powell Ranger District at Blodgett Pass.
