About this map

Tin Cup Lake and its corresponding Tin Cup Lake Dam anchor the hydrography of this high-elevation landscape in Ravalli County. The drainage network is defined by the winding paths of White Cap Creek and Tin Cup Creek, which gather runoff from the slopes of Vance Mountain. A notable point of interest is Daisy Fern Falls, located at a confluence where Triple Creek meets the headwaters of the White Cap.

The U.S. Geological Survey mapping reflects a wilderness area where natural landmarks and water courses predominate over human infrastructure. Other significant tributaries including Capitan Creek to the north and Canyon Creek to the south illustrate the complex watershed system that feeds into the larger regional basins. This survey captures the topographical state of the Bitterroot National Forest area as it stood in the early 21st century.
