1988 Map of Broomtail Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Beaverhead National Forest covers this high-altitude landscape in the late 1980s, dominated by the massive Gravelly Range and the prominent spine of Broomtail Ridge. The terrain is defined by a complex drainage system, where high-country features like Cherry Lakes and Clover Meadows transition into deep incisions like Beartrap Canyon. A network of gulches, including Morgan Gulch, Sunrise Gulch, and Johnny Gulch, demonstrates the intricate erosional patterns of the Madison County highlands. The map illustrates a wilderness largely shaped by water, with the Ruby Creek system and its South Fork carving through the southern reaches, while the Middle Fork Warm Spring Creek and Grindstone Creek suggest the variety of riparian environments found within these protected federal lands.
