1968 Map of Spur Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Snowcrest Range dominates this 1968 survey of the Beaverhead National Forest in Madison County, Montana. This high-elevation landscape is defined by its drainages and dramatic peaks, including Spur Mountain and Sliderock Mountain. The mapping reveals a network of primitive transportation routes, most notably the Snowcrest Trail and the Gilbert Creek Trail, which navigate the steep terrain between the Ruby River and its various tributaries. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the topography drops toward The Notch and the West Fork Ruby River. The map also captures a variety of named creeks such as Ledford Creek and Fawn Creek, as well as the secluded Yellow Bear Lake, reflecting a mid-century wilderness prior to more modern development or trail re-routing.
