About this map

Clearwater National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape, where several prominent ridgelines define the watershed. Indian Henry Ridge and Pot Mtn Ridge run through the northern sections, while the southern terrain is anchored by Moscow Bar Ridge and Flat Mtn. This area is characterized by a dense concentration of small alpine lakes, including Elizabeth Lake, Pete Ott Lake, and the uniquely named Fille Lake and Effie Lake.

Logistical access to this backcountry is marked by specialized camps and trail junctions such as Cold Springs Camp near Cold Springs Peak. The map details an intricate network of forest roads and trails, including routes 712, 725, and 252, which navigate around drainage systems like Elizabeth Cr and Wolf Cr. These pathways historically supported forest management and backcountry travel, connecting remote points like Mush Saddle to the broader regional trail system.
