1994 Map of Trap Mountain

About this map

The Lewis and Clark Range dominates this mid-1990s survey, representing a high-altitude wilderness where the Continental Divide separates the Lewis and Clark National Forest from the Flathead National Forest. This remote landscape is defined by its lack of modern infrastructure, centered instead on the intersection of the Bob Marshall Wilderness and Scapegoat Wilderness. The mapping reveals a complex network of glacial basins and peaks, including Trap Mountain, Scarlet Mountain, and Ayres Peak. The presence of the Basin Creek Cabin and the Continental Divide Trail indicates the primitive nature of human travel through the area. Waterways like Danaher Creek and the Sun River drain the high slopes, while prominent geological features like Hoadley Reef and Sentinel Mountain provide navigation landmarks for those traversing the backcountry through Camp Creek Pass.
