Clancy 15 min. series 1950 topog Boulder District, Deerlodge National Forest 4 inch. to mile August 25 Tizer Lakes, Jefferson Co., Montana to Helena, Lewis & Clark Co., Montana Stuffed birds until afternoon, then drove back to Helena to see Roberta and plan a trip together the next day. Camped west of town along US 12. August 26 Helena, Lewis & Clark Co. to Mt. Edith, Big Belt Mtns, Broadwater Co., Montana troton Drove south on US 12 to Townsend, then east on US 12 toward White Sulphur Springs but turned left (north) on a dirt road (No. Fork Deep Creek Rd.) and followed it to Trail No. 20-C. The sign at this Jct. reads: Mt. Edith 4 miles; Edith Lake 5 miles. The first 1½ miles of the trail may be driven & we did (lazy). This leaves you in timber. The trail breaks out in the open in another mile. The trail crests the ridge between Mt. Edith (to the RT.) and Mt. Baldy at a point only a few tenths of a mile west of Mt. Edith. Mt. Edith appears rounded with a sparse turf covering parts of its rock pavement type top. Since no cliffs or snow patches were visible on Mt. Edith, I assumed Rosy Finches would be rare or absent and therefore I headed west along the ridge toward Mt. Baldy which has steep cliffs & large snow patches on the NE face.

Most of the ridges are considerably lower than the afore mentioned peaks and they have scattered stands of short, wind-blown White-bark Pine, with a few spruce & fir mixed in. Plants include: Fireweed (appears to be the tall low elevation
