1988 Map of Garnet Mountain

About this map

The Gallatin River carves a deep valley through the heart of the Gallatin National Forest, serving as a primary corridor for travel and settlement in this corner of Montana. High above the river, the Garnet Mountain Lookout Tower stands atop Garnet Mountain, providing a strategic vantage point for forest management. This 1980s landscape is characterized by its complex network of watercourses and protected lands, including the eastern reaches of the Lee Metcalf Wilderness south of the Canyon Creek boundary. Notable landmarks like the Squaw Creek Forest Service Station and various campgrounds indicate the area's role as a hub for both government administration and public recreation. High-elevation features such as Storm Castle and Lava Lake define the challenging terrain, while the presence of a Pack Trail suggests the reliance on traditional routes for navigating the backcountry.
