1995 Map of Scapegoat Mountain

About this map

The Continental Divide Scenic Trail snakes along the high ridges of the Scapegoat Mountain Range, marking the boundary between the Lewis and Clark National Forest and the Lolo National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by massive limestone features like Scapegoat Mountain and the Amphitheater, where the headwaters of the Dearborn River and North Fork Blackfoot River begin their descent. Small outposts such as the Green Fork Guard Station and locations like Carmichael and Cooney indicate a history of forest management and early access points in the Scapegoat Wilderness. The map reveals a complex network of drainage systems, including Halfmoon Creek and Spring Creek, which have carved out notable landmarks like Cigarette Rock and Halfmoon Park. This 1995 revision provides an essential record of the trail systems and drainage patterns within the Sun River Game Preserve.
