About this map

Beaverhead National Forest and Gallatin National Forest converge in this high-elevation landscape within the Madison Range. The terrain is defined by dramatic peaks like The Helmet and Black Mtn, while the Lee Metcalf Wilderness occupies the eastern slopes. A network of alpine water features, including Lake Cameron, Cedar Lake, and Cedar Falls, feeds into a complex system of drainage and irrigation.

Water management is evident through features such as the Storey Ditch, Bear Creek Ditch, and Indian Creek Ditch, which channel runoff from the mountains toward the Cameron Bench. Human presence is concentrated along the western edge, where roads like Granger Ranches Rd and Bar K Loop provide access to the foothills. For those researching local heritage, the Bear Creek Cem serves as a lone landmark of the area's early settlement history.
