About this map

The Bitterroot Mountains define the high-altitude landscape of this 1999 revision, where the borders of Idaho and Montana converge. This remote terrain is primarily managed by the Lolo National Forest and Clearwater National Forest, showing a network of drainage systems like Lolo Creek and its many tributaries, including Dick Creek and Johnny Creek. A rare sign of industrial history is found at the Ward Lode Mine, tucked near the Sally Ridge Trail.

High-country lakes such as Skookum Lake, Duffy Lake, and the uniquely named Marys Frog Pond are scattered across the peaks. The southeastern portion of the map transitions into the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, where markers like Pyramid Buttes and Rocky Point overlook the divide between Missoula and Ravalli counties. This document captures the administrative and natural complexity of the National Forest System lands as they were documented at the close of the century.
