About this map

Lolo National Forest and the adjacent Scapegoat Wilderness define this high-altitude landscape along the border of Powell and Lewis and Clark counties. The topography is dominated by massive peaks including Spread Mountain and Omar Mountain, with the Fourth Standard Parallel North bisecting the central terrain.

Strategic passage through this wilderness is marked by Camp Pass, while an intricate network of backcountry paths like the Blackfoot Guide Trail and Canyon Creek Trail provide the only access to remote water bodies such as Lake Otatsy and Canyon Lake. This 1990s revision by the USDA Forest Service tracks a primitive landscape where natural drainages like Dwight Creek and Conger Creek remain the primary geographical markers, largely untouched by modern development.
