About this map

The Stillwater River carves through this high-elevation wilderness in Park County, Montana, defining a landscape dominated by dramatic peaks and alpine lake basins. The terrain is structured around prominent massifs such as Courthouse Mountain, Sawtooth Mountain, and Wolf Mountain, which rise above a complex network of glacial meltwater sources. Significant alpine water bodies including Glacier Green Lake, the Wolf Lakes, and the Grasshopper Lakes dot the high basins, illustrating the post-glacial character of the Beartooth range.

Evidence of the region's topographical complexity is found in the scattered meadows like Big Park and the sharp relief of Iceberg Peak at the southern boundary. The drainage patterns of Glacier Creek, Clarks Creek, and Storm Creek converge toward the river valley, highlighting a remote environment largely untouched by permanent settlement or road infrastructure. This 2011 survey serves as a precise record of these high-country hydrological and geological features, valuable for studying the physical geography of Montana's mountainous interior.
