About this map

Caribou Peak and the high ridges of the Lewis and Clark Range dominate this 2014 survey of the Continental Divide boundary. The terrain is defined by the intersection of the Helena National Forest and the Lewis & Clark National Forest, where steep drainages such as Blacktail Cr and Baking Powder Cr carve through the mountain slopes.

Remote hydrology is a central feature of the landscape, with high-altitude water bodies like Bighorn Lake situated near the headwaters of Bighorn Cr. The map details the complex drainage systems of the Alice Mountains and Monitor Mtn, including the various forks of Falls Cr and the Landers Fork. This data provides a clear record of the watershed and land partitions within these protected federal lands in the early 21st century.
