1987 Map of Scott Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Continental Divide winds through this high-altitude landscape along the border of Idaho and Montana, anchoring a region of dramatic vertical relief. The terrain is defined by massive summits like Scott Peak and Italian Peak, which overlook a network of steep drainages including Nicholia Canyon and Scott Canyon. In the 1980s, the area remained largely a wilderness divided between the Beaverhead National Forest and Targhee National Forest. Human presence is sparse, marked primarily by a Radio Tower and an occasional Prospect, indicating the minimal industrial footprint in this remote sector of the Lemhi Range. Waterways like the North Fork and South Fork of Webber Creek carve through the high country, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Bitterroot Mountains as they stood in the late twentieth century.
