About this map

Beaverhead National Forest defines the high-altitude landscape of this area in Deer Lodge County, where several drainages carve through the mountain terrain. The topographical prominence of Long Peak, Needle Peak, and Tower Peak anchors the northwestern portion of the map, overlooking a complex network of streams including W Fork La Marche Cr and Middle Fork La Marche Cr. In the southern reaches, the drainage of Fishtrap Cr and its various branches, such as E Fork Fishtrap Cr and W Fork Fishtrap Cr, dominate the geography.

The presence of Camp Hollow and access via Mudd Creek Rd indicate the area's use for recreation and forest management within the federal lands. Smaller named features like Thompson Gulch and Swamp Cr provide specific points of reference for researchers tracing the hydrology and land partitions of this wilderness region. The map also detail various land blocks, labeled as PB 37 through PB 45, which reflect the systematic organization of the public land survey system in Montana.
