1995 Map of Wood Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Sawtooth Range dominates this mid-1990s terrain, where the remote Lewis and Clark National Forest meets the high peaks of the Scapegoat Wilderness. This map reveals a landscape defined by sharp ridges and deep creek drainages, anchored by the Benchmark Wilderness Ranch and the adjacent Benchmark Airfield, which serve as critical access points for this part of the Montana backcountry. The topographic survey highlights dramatic elevations ranging from Fairview Mountain to the prominent ridge of the Hogback. The presence of the Van De Riet Memorial near the airfield and a Boat Landing at Wood Lake indicates the area's significance for recreation and memorialization. Tracing the numerous drainages like Wood Creek and Straight Creek reveals the complex hydrology that feeds into the higher-altitude Alpine Lake and the rugged Crown Mountain area.
