1988 Map of Sunset Peak

About this map

The Lolo National Forest dominates this landscape along the border of Sanders Co and Mineral Co, where high summits like Sacajawea Peak and Sunset Peak overlook a complex network of drainage systems. The C C Divide serves as a prominent geographic spine, separating the headwaters of numerous streams including Swamp Creek and Dry Fork. This 1980s terrain is marked by remnants of early exploration, such as a Prospect located along a West Fork Creek tributary and several traditional routes labeled as Pack Trail. The topography transitions from the high elevations of Drury Peak and Olson Peak down into lower-lying areas like Burnt Flats and Long Gulch. The northern edge is anchored by Swamp Lake, providing a clear focal point for the surrounding Eddy Creek drainage. This survey represents a specific moment in the management of Montana's mountain wilderness, highlighting the intersection of natural water courses and established administrative forest boundaries.
