About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this high-country landscape, marking the rugged boundary between Beaverhead County and Clark County. This 1987 survey captures a remote section of the mountain West where the Beaverhead National Forest meets the Targhee National Forest. The map detail reveals a specialized livestock-rearing landscape, anchored by the Middle Creek Cow Camp in the northern reaches.

Drainages like Shineberger Creek, Big West Fork Beaver Creek, and Indian Creek carve through the terrain, illustrating the intricate watershed patterns of the high divide. Navigability is limited to 4wd tracks and trails, highlighting the isolation of areas like Tepee Draw and Broad Hollow. For those tracing the history of public land management or early cattle grazing routes, the proximity of the Montana-Idaho state line provides essential geographic context.
