1970 Map of Steamboat Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Steamboat Mountain dominates this portion of the Lewis and Clark National Forest, rising above a complex network of high-country drainages. The landscape is defined by the sharp relief between peaks like Lone Chief Mountain and the deep incisions of the Dearborn River and Elk Creek. This 1970 survey records a backcountry world accessible primarily via pack trails and jeep trails, where remote outposts like Elk Creek Ranch, Sky High Ranch, and the C Barn Camp provide the only signs of human habitation. The hydrological complexity is evident in features such as Cataract Falls and the confluence of numerous named streams like Cyanide Creek and Sawmill Creek. Geologic and topographic landmarks including Devils Glen, Bailey Basin, and Twin Buttes illustrate the transition from high alpine summits to more open terrain near Beaver Meadows.
