1965 Map of Graphite Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Beaverhead National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape, where numerous springs and steep gulches feed the regional drainage system. The topography is dominated by prominent summits including Ellis Peak and Sourdough Peak, while Graphite Mountain serves as a central landmark for this 1960s-era survey. The map indicates a history of resource exploration, noting several prospects scattered across the drainages of Porcupine Canyon and Sweeney Gulch. A network of jeep trails and primitive paths provides the only access into these remote basins, such as Muddy Hole Basin, illustrating the isolated nature of the terrain during this period. Local water sources are carefully documented, ranging from Hewlett Spring in the south to West Kate Creek Spring near the northern boundary, reflecting the vital importance of water for both wildlife and high-country land management.
