About this map

Beaverhead National Forest encompasses the entirety of this high-elevation landscape in Beaverhead County, defined by a complex drainage network that feeds the Big Hole River basin. The namesake Proposal Rock stands as a prominent landmark in the southwest, overlooking the headwaters of McVey Cr. The terrain is deeply etched by the various branches of Doolittle Creek, including the N Fork Doolittle Fork Cr, Middle Fork Doolittle Cr, and S Fork Doolittle Cr, which illustrate the hydrological complexity of the Pioneer Mountains.

Access into this backcountry area is concentrated along the north, where N Doolittle Rd and Doolittle Creek Rd provide entry points into the timbered slopes. To the east, the map captures the secluded Stone Lakes and the beginnings of Stone Cr and Shaw Cr. This 2014 survey serves as a detailed record of public land management boundaries, including the specific township and range lines like t1s r14w, that govern this roadless and undeveloped portion of Montana.
