2024 Map of Cleveland Mountain

About this map

Cleveland Mtn stands as a central topographic anchor within a high-elevation landscape straddling the Ravalli and Granite County line. This mountainous territory is largely defined by the conservation boundaries of the Bitterroot National Forest, Lolo National Forest, and the protected Welcome Creek Wilderness. The drainage patterns are complex, with waters flowing through canyons such as Cinnabar Creek and Welcome Creek toward the southern boundary marked by Rock Creek. A network of high ridges and named passes, including Welcome Sawmill Saddle and Cinnamon Bear Saddle, suggests a legacy of forest management and backcountry travel. While the area lacks permanent settlements, the presence of Rock Creek Rd and Co Rd 4267 indicates vital access points for timber, recreation, and the surveying of the Sapphire Mountains range.
