About this map

Elkhorn Hot Springs and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the Beaverhead National Forest define this mid-century survey of Beaverhead County. The map captures a mountain economy built on both extraction and emerging recreation, with the Rainy Mountain Ski Area established near a cluster of significant mining operations like the Old Elkhorn Mine, Magna Mine, and Polaris Mine.
