2017 Map of Cirque Lake

About this map

Beaverhead National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Madison County, where the Greenhorn Range meets the Gravelly Range. This 2017 survey details a network of gulches and creeks that have long been central to the region's geography, including the notable French Gulch and Alder Gulch north of Summit. The map traces the rugged drainage patterns of the N Fork Wigwam Cr and Meadow Fork Greenhorn Cr, which flow through steep drainages below peaks like Baldy Mtn and Sheep Mtn. High mountain water bodies such as Cirque Lake and Talus Lake appear alongside vital water sources like Maloney Spring. The area's limited infrastructure is represented by primitive routes like Alder Gulch Rd and Barton Gulch Rd, reflecting the remote character of this Montana wilderness.
