2000 Map of Haystack Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2005

About this map

Independence (Site) sits deep within the high-elevation terrain where the Park and Sweet Grass county line traverses the peaks. This 2000 revision reveals the remnants of historic mining activity, most notably at the Independence Mine, which is surrounded by labels for Prospects and Tailings. The landscape is dominated by the steep drainages of the East Fork Boulder River and Bull Creek, with several alpine water bodies such as Lake Kathleen and Blue Lake marking the glacial basins. Significant peaks like Haystack Peak, Baboon Mountain, and Monument Peak anchor the topography of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness, showing a remote region primarily accessible via trails and four-wheel-drive routes like the Big Timber Gardiner path.
