About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses the high country of the Little Belt Mountains on the border of Cascade and Meagher counties. This area is characterized by a series of prominent peaks and drainage systems, most notably Thunder Mountain and Big Horn Mountain. The landscape is etched by various gulches, including the descriptive Goblin Gulch and Sawmill Gulch, the latter hinting at the region's historical timber interests.

Waterways like Belt Creek and Logging Creek flow through the northern reaches, accessible by Logging Creek Road. The map provides a detailed view of the terrain at the southern edge of the range, from the height of Mount Pilgrim to the confluence of smaller streams like Deer Creek and Thunder Creek. These features illustrate the drainage patterns of this montane environment in the early 21st century.
