About this map

The Continental Divide forms the backbone of this high-elevation landscape, marking the historic boundary between Lemhi County, Idaho, and Beaverhead County, Montana. Anchored by the prominence of Goldstone Mtn within the Beaverhead Mountains, the area is defined by its complex drainage systems and protected public lands. The eastern slopes fall within the Beaverhead National Forest, while the western terrain descends into the Salmon National Forest.

Hydrological features are central to the geography here, from the thermal waters at Sharkey Hot Spring to the numerous seasonal and perennial flows like Kenney Creek and Pattee Creek. The map details a network of forest roads and trails, including the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Warm Springs-Agency Loop Wt Trl, illustrating how these remote mountains are navigated today for recreation and resource management.
