2011 Map of Saddle Peak

About this map

Ross Peak and Saddle Peak anchor the high ridgeline of the Bridger Range in this 2011 survey of Gallatin County. The topography is defined by sharp elevation changes between peaks like Baldy Mountain and the drainage basins of the North Fork and Middle Fork Brackett Creek. Human activity is concentrated along the eastern slopes and canyon floors, where the Bridger Bowl Ski Area and Brackett Creek Campground indicate a landscape heavily used for recreation. Local heritage is visible in labels for the Ryen Sawmill and Spring Hill Pavilion on the western edge, while ranching footprints remain at the Forsythe Ranch and Flaming Arrow Ranch. These features, along with named corridors like Bridger Canyon Dr, show the modern intersection of traditional agriculture and mountain tourism.
