About this map

The Beaverhead Mountains define the high-altitude boundary between Idaho and Montana, marked here by the path of the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. This wilderness landscape, managed within the Salmon National Forest and Beaverhead National Forest, centers on the prominent Goldstone Mtn. The terrain is deeply etched by a network of drainages including Kenney Cr, Pattee Cr, and Sandy Cr.

Hydrological features are particularly concentrated in the southern basins, where Sharkey Hot Spring and numerous named water sources like Bohannon Spring and Poison Gulch Spring suggest a complex geothermal and groundwater system. Human presence is largely limited to a web of Forest Service access routes, such as the Warm Springs Wood Rd and the Warm Springs-Agency Loop Wt (Snow), which facilitate movement through the high passes and along the Continental Divide.
