1997 Map of Lima Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Lima Peaks dominate this high-altitude landscape along the southwestern edge of Montana, where the Continental Divide winds through the Beaverhead National Forest. This late-twentieth-century survey documents the headwaters of numerous streams, including Birch Creek and Little Sheep Creek, which drain from the slopes of Garfield Mountain. The presence of the Deep Creek Cow Camp near Deep Creek and the Dillon Ranger District boundary reflects the ongoing importance of livestock grazing and federal land management in this remote region. A network of springs, such as Sawmill Spring and Lower Deep Creek Spring, provide vital water points in a terrain marked by steep gulches like Dutch Hollow Creek and Crooked Run. The map provides a precise record of the natural topography and primitive access routes before the turn of the millennium.
