1962 Map of Warren Peak

About this map

The Anaconda Range forms the high spine of this 1962 survey, where the Continental Divide winds through jagged summits including Warren Peak and East Goat Peak. This is a landscape of high-altitude basins and alpine hydrology, defined by the early boundaries of the Deerlodge National Forest and Beaverhead National Forest. Significant local elevations like McGlaughlin Peak and Nipple Peak overlook a network of glacial lakes such as Rainbow Lake and Johnson Lake. The presence of the Paddock Ditch near West Fork Fishtrap Creek suggests early efforts to manage water flow through the complex drainage systems of Mudd Creek. At the southern edge, Pintler Meadows serves as a rare level opening among the steep slopes of Mudd Ridge and the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness.
