1987 Map of The Needles

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The high elevations of Gallatin National Forest and the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness dominate this high-country landscape in the late 1980s. Defined by significant topographic relief, the area is accessible primarily through primitive routes like the Fourmile Pack Trail and the Meattrack Trail, which navigate the steep drainages of Fourmile Creek and Meattrack Creek. The absence of roads underscores the preserved character of this mountain environment, where prominent peaks such as Crow Mountain and War Eagle Mountain tower over alpine waters like Silber Lake and Bridge Lake.
