2014 Map of Burnt Ridge

About this map

Bitterroot National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, where the confluence of the West Fork Bitterroot River and the main stem of the Bitterroot River shapes the local geography. Near the small settlement of Conner, the valley floor supports the Trapper Creek Strip Airport, while the surrounding slopes are carved by numerous drainages like Chaffin Cr and Trapper Cr. The mapping of transport routes reveals a mix of modern infrastructure like US Highway 93 S alongside historic pathways such as the Chief Joseph Trl and Appaloosa Trl. This area is characterized by steep elevation changes, moving from the river banks up toward prominent features such as Burnt Ridge, Grouse Butte, and Baker Point. Land use reflects a combination of conservation and residential development, evidenced by the presence of Peaks and Pines Park nestled among the forest service boundaries.
