1978 Map of Kitty Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the spine of this 1978 survey, tracing the high-altitude border between Idaho and Montana. The landscape is dominated by the sprawling administrative reaches of the Beaverhead National Forest and Salmon National Forest, where the presence of the Bloody Dick Guard Sta and Hughes Cow Camp underscores a history of federal land management and seasonal ranching. In the north, Reservoir Lake and the headwaters of Bloody Dick Creek drain through a network of steep gulches, while a solitary Landing Strip and various Pack Trails provide the only significant access points into this high-country terrain. This map captures the remote character of the Bitterroot Range before contemporary developments, documented through features like Pattee Ridge and scattered Prospects that hint at the region's mineral exploration history.
