About this map

Warren Peak stands as a central monument along the Continental Divide, marking the high-altitude boundary where the Deerlodge National Forest meets the Beaverhead National Forest. This late-twentieth-century survey documents a high-country landscape defined by the sharp transitions of the Anaconda Pintler Wilderness. Glacial activity is evident in the numerous alpine basins like Glover Basin and Maloney Basin, as well as a cluster of high-elevation water bodies including Edith Lake, Johnson Lake, and Rainbow Lake.

South of the divide, the terrain softens slightly into the drainage of Mudd Creek and the marshy expanses of Pintler Meadows. The map illustrates the specialized infrastructure of federal land management, showing the intersection of the Wise River Ranger District and Philipsburg Ranger District. Notable travel routes such as the Philipsburg Wise River Scenic Byway and the Hi Line Trail provide the primary human access through this protected wilderness.
