Summary
This Data Release contains geospatially-enabled geological data to accompany the Geologic Map of the Central Beaverhead Mountains, Lemhi County, Idaho, and Beaverhead County, Montana: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3413. This map portrays detailed geology of the central Beaverhead Mountains, printable at 1:50,000 scale. These data were collected between 1997 and 2017, and synthesized to provide significant new stratigraphic and structural data and interpretations. Generalized basin geology compiled from sources on both sides of the range is combined with newly mapped bedrock geology to better integrate geologic development of the map area. These data are shared to meet open data requirements for interpretive report: [...]

This geodatabase and associated files accompany the Geologic Map of the Central Beaverhead Mountains, Lemhi County, Idaho, and Beaverhead County, Montana: U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3413. These data can be used to recreate the map, integrate with other geospatial geology data, or perform geospatial analysis. Although the map is appropriate for use at 1:24.000 scale, it is intended to be printed at 1:50,000 scale because of the large size of the study area. This Data Release conforms to the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program's (NCGMP) Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) version 2.0, with modifications as appropriate.
