2014 Map of Kings Hill

About this map

Kings Hill Pass serves as the central high point of this mountainous region within the Lewis & Clark National Forest, where the borders of Meagher, Cascade, and Judith Basin counties converge. The high-altitude landscape of the Little Belt Mountains is defined by prominent summits such as Porphyry Peak and Mizpah Peak, and the recreation-oriented geography of Moose Park and O'Brien Park. A dense network of headwaters, including Belt Creek, Sheep Creek, and the various forks of Deadman Creek, drain the slopes, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Montana divide. The presence of Forest Green and landmarks like Warming Hut Knob reflect the area's development for mountain access and forestry management, while US Hwy 89 provides the primary transit corridor through this high-country terrain.
