About this map

Gallatin National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape, where deep drainages and sharp summits define the wilderness character of Gallatin County. The topography is anchored by significant massifs including Ernest Miller Ridge and Monument Mtn, with the latter rising above the headwaters of Monument Cr. The drainage patterns are intricate, with Bacon Rind Cr and Burnt Fork carving through the central terrain.

Evidence of the area's geological complexity is seen in the clustering of high points such as Cone Peak, Redstreak Peak, and White Peak. To the southeast, the Upper Tepee Basin provides a natural catchment for Tepee Cr, situated below Tepee Point. This survey captures the primitive state of these national forest lands, showing a landscape defined by natural features rather than human development, typical of the high Gallatin range.
