About this map

Beaverhead National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape in Beaverhead County, defined by a complex network of gulches and prominent peaks. The topography is anchored by Twin Adams Mtn and Thunderhead Mtn, with the drainages of Birch Cr and Willow Cr carving deep paths through the terrain. The presence of numerous named gulches like Farlin Gulch, Meyers Gulch, and Greenstone Gulch suggests a history of localized prospecting or seasonal ranching movements through these corridors.

Transportation is limited to rugged routes such as Birch Creek Rd, which provides access to the southern reaches near Limestone Mtn. The naming of features like Armstrong Mtn and Humbolt Mtn reflects the legacy of early surveyors and settlers in this part of Montana. This 2017 edition provides a modern view of the enduring natural boundaries and water sources, including Lost Cr and DuBois Cr, that have dictated movement through this region for generations.
