1988 Map of Koch Peak

About this map

Koch Peak and the surrounding Taylor Peaks dominate this high-elevation mountain terrain within the Lee Metcalf Wilderness. Located along the boundary between the Beaverhead National Forest and the Gallatin National Forest, the map records a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep drainage basins in the 1980s. A network of creeks, including Indian Creek, Taylor Creek, and the curiously named Raw Liver Creek, flow through these steep elevations. Notable landmarks such as The Wedge and Sawtooth Ridge emphasize the dramatic vertical relief of the Madison Range. Small alpine water bodies like No Man Lake and Snake Lake are tucked into the high cirques, accessible only by a single 4wd track and wilderness trails, illustrating the area's enduring status as a protected primitive landscape.
