1994 Map of Pilot Peak

About this map

The South Fork Flathead Wild and Scenic River carves a dominant path through this portion of the Flathead National Forest in Powell County. The landscape is defined by the high peaks of the Bob Marshall Wilderness, where dramatic topographic features like Pilot Peak and Fossil Mountain rise above the drainage basins of Youngs Creek and Danaher Creek. A rare sign of human habitation in this protected corridor is the Hahn Creek Cabin, situated near the confluence of Hahn Creek and Jumbo Creek. The survey identifies geological curiosities such as Hole in the Wall Cave on the slopes of Jumbo Mountain. This mid-1990s record reflects the preservation of the Montana backcountry, detailing a network of watercourses including Cayuse Creek and Gordon Creek that feed into the primary river valley.
