2020 Map of Scotchman Peak

About this map

The Cabinet Mountains define this high-elevation region along the border of Bonner County, Idaho, and Lincoln and Sanders counties in Montana. This landscape is largely protected by the Kaniksu National Forest and Kootenai National Forest, featuring prominent summits such as Scotchman Peak, Scotchman Number Two, and Goat Mountain. A network of watercourses, including Lightning Creek and Blue Cr, drains the complex topography of canyons like Webb Canyon. Human activity is primarily limited to forest development roads and the Regal Mine in the western reaches. This 2020 survey demonstrates the intersection of state lines and forest boundaries in a terrain characterized by drainage basins like those of Little Spar Lake and West Fork Blue Creek.
