1998 Map of Trapper Peak

About this map

Trapper Peak rises as the central landmark of this high-altitude landscape in the late 1990s, set within the protected expanse of the Bitterroot National Forest and the Selway - Bitterroot Wilderness. The terrain is defined by a series of glacial cirques and alpine lakes, including Kerlee Lake, Chaffin Lake, and Tamarack Lake, which feed the drainage systems of Tin Cup Creek and Chaffin Creek. This map reveals a landscape managed primarily for recreation and conservation, though isolated Mines on the eastern slopes hint at earlier resource extraction efforts.
