1997 Map of Morrison Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Continental Divide winds across this high-altitude landscape along the border of Montana and Idaho, marking the boundary between Beaverhead National Forest and Salmon National Forest. The topography is defined by significant elevations, including Baldy Mountain, and is drained by a network of steep watercourses such as Wheeler Creek, Simpson Creek, and Chamberlain Creek. The high-country terrain reveals a history of resource extraction, with an Open Pit Mine and numerous Prospects located near the headwaters of Tenmile Creek. The Continental Divide Scenic Trail traverses the ridges, providing passage through areas like Lake Gulch and Horsethief Canyon. This late-twentieth-century survey documents the land as it was managed by the USDA Forest Service, balancing industrial potential with preserved wilderness around features like Morrison Lake.
