2017 Map of Schultz Saddle

About this map

The Continental Divide serves as the primary geographic and political boundary on this map, separating the Bitterroot National Forest in Ravalli Co from the Beaverhead National Forest in Beaverhead Co. This high-altitude landscape is defined by the peaks of the Anaconda Range, where drainage systems like the East Fork Bitterroot River and Schultz Cr originate. The topography is documented during a period of modern forest management, showing an intricate network of forest roads such as Tie Creek Rd and Schultz Tie Rd that navigate the steep slopes of Tolan Ridge and Hilltop. The map provides a detailed view of the watershed patterns in this section of the Bitterroot Mountains, where numerous small tributaries like Mink Cr, Lodgepole Cr, and Bugle Cr carve through the heavily timbered terrain near Schultz Saddle.
