2024 Map of Torrey Mountain

About this map

The high peaks of the Pioneer Mountains define this section of the Beaverhead National Forest, where steep ridgelines reach their apex at summits like Tweedy Mtn and Torrey Mtn. This landscape is characterized by a dense network of glacial basins and high-altitude water bodies, including the Gorge Lakes to the north and the clustered Twin Lakes, Minneopa Lake, and Boatman Lake in the southern reaches. The drainage patterns show water moving through deep incisions like Sawlog Gulch and along Rattlesnake Creek. Human access is primarily limited to primitive corridors such as Birch Creek Rd and Mule Creek Rd, reflecting a wilderness area managed for its natural resources and watershed value. The survey detail highlights the intricate topography of the Eastern Pioneers, showing the transition from high alpine lake basins to the timbered slopes that feed into the larger river systems of Beaverhead County.
