2020 Map of Jakie Creek

About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest and Lolo National Forest converge in this high-altitude landscape along the Lewis and Clark Range. The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail winds through the center of the sheet, crossing notable high points such as Welcome Pass and Elk Pass. This 2020 survey documents the complex drainage systems that flow away from the divide, including Lost Cabin Creek and the Dearborn River. Human presence is marked by the Steamboat Lookout perched above Bunch Grass Basin, serving as a critical vantage point for forest management. The geography transitions from the steep peaks of the range into more sheltered areas like Tobacco Valley and Carmichael Basin, providing a detailed look at the wilderness corridor as it appeared in the early 21st century.
