About this map

The Continental Divide defines the high-altitude boundary of this territory, where the borders of Beaverhead and Lemhi counties meet along the crest. This high-country landscape is split between the Beaverhead National Forest in Montana and the Salmon National Forest in Idaho. The drainage patterns are a central feature of the topography, with Bloody Dick Creek and its many tributaries, such as Hopps Creek and Peterson Creek, carving through the steep terrain.

Modern recreation and traditional access routes are represented by the Continental Divide National Scenic Trl and various forest roads like Selway Creek Rd. Specific landmarks such as Pyramid Hill and Pyatt Springs provide concrete reference points for backcountry navigation. The map illustrates the complex intersection of federal land management and natural hydrology, including the courses of Kitty Creek and Eunice Creek as they descend from the divide.
