1996 Map of Carpp Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Carpp Ridge and the high peaks of the Anaconda Pintler Range dominate this 1990s U.S. Forest Service revision, showing a landscape defined by the Continental Divide as it separates Granite Co and Deer Lodge Co. The terrain is marked by alpine basins and high-elevation waters including Carpp Lake, Spruce Lake, and the East Fork Reservoir. Evidence of high-country mineral exploration appears at the Carpp Mine and several unnamed prospects near the ridge, while the dense network of drainages like Mid Fk Rock Cr and Happy Creek illustrate the watershed's complexity. This map captures the transition from managed timber in the Deerlodge National Forest to the primitive landscape within the Anaconda Pintler Wilderness, where meadows such as McDougal Meadow and basins like Maloney Basin provided seasonal forage and passage in the era before modern recreational development intensified.
