2014 Map of Fridley Peak

About this map

Gallatin National Forest encompasses this high-elevation mountain environment, dominated by the peaks and drainages of the Gallatin Range. At the center of the regional hydrology is Hyalite Reservoir, which collects waters from numerous alpine tributaries including Hyalite Cr and Maid of the Mist Cr. The landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, containing numerous cascades such as Palisade Falls, Grotto Falls, and Silken Skein Falls. Notable geological features include the Arch Falls Natural Bridge and distinctively named summits like Sleeping Giant Mtn and The Mummy. Higher elevations reveal a network of glacial tarns, including Hyalite Lake and the Fridley Lakes, situated beneath the prominent Fridley Peak and Hyalite Peak. A single primary corridor, Hyalite Canyon Rd, provides access into this complex system of ridges and basins along the Gallatin and Park County border.
