About this map

The high summits of the Bridger Range dominate this portion of Gallatin National Forest, where the landscape is defined by a series of prominent peaks and deep drainages. Sacagawea Peak serves as the focal point of the range here, flanked by Pomp Peak and Naya Nuki Peak. The rugged eastern slopes contain high-altitude water bodies such as Fairy Lake and Elf Lake, which feed the headwaters of Fairy Creek.

Transport through this complex terrain follows natural gaps and creek beds, notably via Battle Ridge Pass and the long descent of Limestone Canyon. To the north and east, the topography transitions into a network of forks and valleys, including the South Fork Flathead Creek and Carrol Creek. This survey captures the intricate drainage patterns that have shaped the canyons and gulches, from the sheer walls of Mill Creek Canyon to the winding path of Corbly Gulch.
