2017 Map of Lone Indian Peak

About this map

Gallatin National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape where the Gallatin River carves a path alongside Gallatin Rd. Small settlements like Red Cliff and Lemondrop provide human context to a region defined by dramatic elevation changes and a sequence of tributary creeks including First Cr and Fourth Cr. The transportation network is built around river crossings, with Lemon Bridge and Red Cliff Bridge serving as vital links. High ridges and peaks dictate the drainage patterns of the area, from Eaglehead Mtn in the northeast to the namesake Lone Indian Peak in the south. The placement of landmarks like Prohibition Rock and Blizzard Ridge suggests a landscape shaped by extreme weather and local lore, while the secluded Golden Trout Lakes highlight the undisturbed character of the high backcountry.
