About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the primary geographic and political boundary on this map, separating Bitterroot National Forest in Ravalli County from the Beaverhead National Forest in Beaverhead County. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the sharp peaks of the Anaconda Range and the prominent gaps at Schultz Saddle and Mink Creek Saddle.

Watersheds diverge from the divide, with the East Fork Bitterroot River and its many tributaries, such as Tolan Cr and Meadow Cr, draining the western slopes. The map traces the winding Tie Creek Rd through the southern section, one of the few developed passages in a terrain dominated by features like Tolan Ridge and Hilltop. This survey provides an essential view of the administrative and natural boundaries that dictate the land use of these two sprawling National Forests.
