1972 Map of Campfire Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Gallatin National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks carve through the Montana backcountry. The 1972 field survey shows a network of pack trails and jeep tracks providing the primary access to remote peaks such as Sunlight Peak and Sugarloaf Mountain. Isolated administrative outposts like the Porcupine Guard Sta and Ibex Guard Sta serve as markers of the area's forest management history. High-altitude water bodies, including Campfire Lake, Moose Lake, and the evocative Dead Horse Lakes, dot the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The intricate drainage patterns, from Horse Creek in the south to the South Fork Shields River in the north, suggest a terrain defined by seasonal runoff and steep relief, largely untouched by modern infrastructure and preserved for wilderness use.
