2017 Map of Hidden Lakes

About this map

Gallatin National Forest encompasses the majority of this mountain landscape, where the Gallatin River carves through the prominent Gallatin Canyon. The presence of numerous named crossings along Gallatin Rd, including the Gallatin Golden Gate Bridge, Jack Smith Bridge, and Anceney Bridge, indicates the importance of this corridor for accessing the high-elevation backcountry. To the west, Table Mtn rises above the drainage of Cascade Cr and Lava Lake, while the southern reaches of the quadrangle feature the developed area of Big Sky and the nearby Levinski Ridge. The drainage network is dense with tributaries such as Moose Cr, Swan Cr, and Portal Cr, the latter of which leads toward the remote Hidden Lakes in the southeastern corner of the survey.
