2017 Map of Sabe Mountain

About this map

Nez Perce Trail Rd winds through this high-altitude landscape, following a ridgeline that divides the Bitterroot National Forest from the Nez Perce National Forest. This remote backcountry area is defined by its dramatic peaks and high-basin water bodies, including White Top Mtn and the clustered Burnt Knob Lakes. The map reveals a complex drainage system where the Little Clearwater River and numerous creeks like Goodman Cr and Basin Cr carve through the steep terrain. Notable topographic landmarks such as Sabe Mtn, Lodgepole Hump, and Horse Heaven Saddle mark significant points along the trail system, while Sabe Vista Point offers an overlook of the surrounding wilderness. Smaller alpine lakes, such as Middle Trilby Lake and Stillman Lake, highlight the glacial character of these mountain summits.
