2020 Map of Little Park Mountain

About this map

Custer National Forest and Gallatin National Forest meet in this high-altitude corner of Park County, where the Beartooth Mountains dominate the landscape. The geography is defined by its glacial activity, with both the Wolf Glacier and Grasshopper Glacier feeding a network of high-country lakes such as Wolf Lakes, Grasshopper Lakes, and Courthouse Lake. The Stillwater River and its branches, including the Main Stillwater River and W. Fork Stillwater River, drain the eastern slopes through deep valleys. High peaks like Iceberg Peak, Sawtooth Mtn, and Storm Mtn create a jagged horizon, while the relatively level stretch of Big Park offers a rare break in the vertical relief. The map provides a precise view of these remote alpine systems before further glacial recession alters the landscape, marking the transition between major forest preserves.
