2014 Map of Isaac Meadows

About this map

Isaac Meadows sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape within the Beaverhead National Forest, where a network of seasonal and year-round streams defines the drainage patterns of the Continental Divide region. The terrain is characterized by prominent ridges like Badger Ridge and a series of deep gulches, including Nickel Bar Gulch, Portal Gulch, and Wenger Gulch, which feed into the Ruby Cr and Moose Cr systems. Water management for local ranching or conservation is evident through features like Hirschy Reservoir and Schultz Reservoir. The road network, consisting of the Gibbonsville Rd and Big Moosehorn Creek Rd, follows the natural contours of the valley floors, providing access to these remote reaches of Montana. The interplay between the steep slopes and the relatively flat meadowlands highlights the classic geography of the Beaverhead range during the early 21st century.
