Many maps still call this range the Bitterroot Mountains. The Beaverhead crest is graced with pristine glacial cirques, massive limestone cliffs, knife-edged ridges and dozens of imposing summits. It has, for the most part, a single spine and only two significant subsidiary ridges. This crest stays above 8,000 feet for its entire length and is highlighted by two high, rugged segments: One near Salmon and one at the range's southern terminus.</div> <bR> <div> <B>WHAT'S NEW?</B></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id169.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="AJAX PEAK"><U>Ajax Peak </U></A> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000CC" FACE="Arial" >Click here for Montana route description and photos.</FONT></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id139.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Baldy Mountain"><U>Baldy Mountain</U></A><A HREF="id139.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Baldy Mountain"><U>.</U></A><A HREF="id139.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Baldy Mountain"><U> </U></A> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000CC" FACE="Arial" >Click here for photo.</FONT></div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="id138.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Cobble Mountain"><U>Cobble Mountain.</U></A><A HREF="id138.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Cobble Mountain"><U> </U></A> <FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial" >Click here for photo.</FONT></div> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
