1998 Map of Horse Creek Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Bitterroot National Forest and the Salmon National Forest meet at the crest of the Bitterroot Range, marking the high-altitude boundary between Ravalli County, Montana, and Lemhi County, Idaho. This late-twentieth-century landscape is defined by its dramatic drainage networks, where the headwaters of North Fork Deer Creek and Chicken Creek flow through steep terrain north of the divide. To the south, the map captures the northern reaches of the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, a protected expanse where Horse Creek and Saddle Creek begin their descent toward the Salmon River. Human activity is concentrated around strategic transit points and recreation sites, most notably the Horse Creek Hot Springs Campground near the southern edge of the sheet. Higher up, Horse Creek Pass and Woods Creek Pass serve as the primary topographic breaches in the ridgeline, while prominent landmarks like Razorback Mountain and Cathedral Rock provide orientation for those navigating this montane environment.
