1998 Map of Kent Peak

About this map

The Sapphire Mountains define the high country on this 1990s survey, where the boundary between Bitterroot National Forest and Deerlodge National Forest follows the ridgeline. This landscape is marked by a series of high-altitude meadows and summits, including Kent Peak and the distinctive Rooster Comb. Human presence is minimal in this wilderness area, centered on the Lost Tooth Cabin near the headwaters of Martin Creek. The map details a complex network of forest management boundaries, including the Darby Philipsburg Ranger District and Philipsburg Sula Ranger District. A cluster of small alpine lakes, such as Hope Lake, Faith Lake, and Charity Lake, sits tucked into the eastern slopes, while the western drainage flows into Sleeping Child Creek and Skalkaho Creek.
