About this map

The Flint Creek Range dominates this portion of the Deerlodge National Forest, where a high-elevation landscape is defined by its glaciated basins and rugged summits. Named peaks such as Pikes Peak and Goat Mtn tower over a complex network of drainages, including the headwaters of the Middle Fork Douglas Cr and the various forks of Gold Cr. This 2014 survey reveals a high density of alpine water bodies, from the Gold Cr Lakes and Rainbow Lake to the more secluded Dolus Lakes and Thompson Lake.

Tracing the routes along Princeton Gulch and Eureka Ridge offers a look at the topographical challenges faced by early prospectors and foresters. The boundary between Granite and Powell counties bisects the terrain, crossing through Game Pass and running near Rose Mtn. The map preserves the specific locations of geographic landmarks like Horseshoe Basin and the Deerlodge Basin, providing essential context for understanding the remote wilderness structure of this part of Montana.
