2024 Map of Mount Edith

About this map

Helena National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Broadwater and Meagher counties. The area is defined by a series of prominent peaks and alpine basins, notably Mt Edith and Mt Boldy. These heights feed a complex network of drainages including Big Birch Creek, Ray Creek, and the North Fork Deep Creek. The terrain is interconnected by a remote system of trails, such as the Needles Trl and Edith Lake Trl, which provide access to secluded water bodies like Hidden Lake, Grace Lake, and Upper Baldy Lake. The map reveals the high-country hydrology of the Big Belt Mountains, where the divide at Windy Ridge separates the headwaters of numerous gulches and forks. The absence of modern infrastructure underscores the protected wilderness character of this region, preserved for its watershed and natural value.
