2020 Map of Degan Mountain

About this map

Salmon National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Lemhi County, where the topography rises toward Degan Mtn and Sheephorn Mtn. The terrain is deeply incised by a drainage network including Rattlesnake Cr, Deer Creek, and Iron Cr. Human presence is marked primarily by forest management and historical transit, notably the Old Indian Trail which traverses the western slopes. Water resources such as Sheephorn Spring and Corbett Spring Number 1 provide critical points of interest in this drainage system. Significant basins like Badger Basin and Peel Tree Basin sit between the prominent peaks, connected by a network of specialized routes including Iron Creek Rd and Peel Tree Rd, reflecting the area's ongoing importance for forest access and resource management.
