About this map

Maverick Mtn stands as a prominent landmark within the Beaverhead National Forest in this portion of Beaverhead County. The landscape is defined by the Big Hole Divide, a significant topographical feature that separates the complex drainage systems of the region. The map reveals an intricate network of mountain streams, including Grasshopper Cr and Beaver Cr to the north, and Cottonwood Cr and Neagle Cr to the south.

Evidence of human land management is visible through the presence of Pyle Ditch, suggesting agricultural or mining water diversion in the high-altitude terrain. Transportation is limited to rugged corridors such as Bull Creek Rd, which follows the path of Bull Cr. The geography here illustrates the headwaters of numerous creeks like Bear Willow Cr and Shoestring Cr, characterizing a wilderness area focused on drainage and elevation rather than dense settlement.
