About this map

Hemlock Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this 2020 landscape, situated within the extensive boundaries of the Clearwater National Forest. The area is defined by a dense network of drainages and ridgelines, including the notable Dan Lee Ridge and Chamook Ridge. A complex system of forest roads, such as French Mountain Rd and Three Bear Rd, provides access across the dividing line between Clearwater County and Idaho County.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with Lolo Creek and Musselshell Creek carving through the terrain. For those interested in local naming conventions, the map labels several distinct draws and gulches, including Armstrong Gulch, Greer Gulch, and Winter Draw. These features, along with high points like Austin Ridge, reveal the intricate geographic character of this high-country region where national forest management and the natural watershed intersect.
