1986 Map of Tumble Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Tumble Mountain and the high peaks of the Beartooth range dominate this mid-1980s survey, marking a landscape defined by glacial lakes and high-altitude wilderness. The area is divided by the Sweet Grass Co Stillwater Co boundary, where the headwaters of the Stillwater River and West Fork Stillwater River flow through the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. The map reveals a dense concentration of named alpine water bodies with evocative titles like Lake Surrender, Lake Vengence, and Wounded Man Lake. Movement through this terrain is limited to a network of a Pack Trail and paths through various Snow Fields. The transition between the Custer National Forest and Gallatin National Forest highlights the protected status of this high Plateau region, where landmarks such as Chalice Peak and Two Sisters serve as primary navigational points for those traversing the backcountry.
