1997 Map of Old Baldy Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

The high-altitude terrain of the Jefferson Madison County Line dominates this late-twentieth-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by its historical mining activity. Resource extraction footprints are visible across the slopes of the Beaverhead National Forest and Deerlodge National Forest, where a network of mine shafts and specific operations like the Argenta Mine and Eleanora Mines cluster around the peaks. The drainage patterns of Bear Gulch and Goodrich Gulch cut through the steep topography, while names such as Smelter Mountain and the Pete and Joe Mine provide evidence of the individual prospects and industrial efforts that shaped this part of Montana. Water sources like Smith Reservoir and Lower Boulder Lake are mapped alongside the remote peaks of Old Baldy Mountain and Lava Mountain, illustrating the rugged intersections of the continental divide's geology and its economic history.
