Mount Haggin

10,610 ft

Mount Haggin is a prominent peak located in the Rocky Mountains mountain range in Montana, USA. Standing at an impressive elevation of 10,607 feet, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. This mountain is a part of the Anaconda Range and is situated within the Deerlodge National Forest. Its vast expanse covers an area of approximately 50 square miles, making it a significant feature in the region.

During the winter season, Mount Haggin experiences a diverse snowpack range due to its high elevation and proximity to the Continental Divide. Snow accumulation can vary greatly, with an average annual snowfall of around 200 inches. This makes it a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts, including skiers and snowboarders.

Mount Haggin is also known for its contribution to the local hydrology. Several creeks and rivers receive runoff from the mountain, including the North Fork of Flint Creek and the East Fork of Rock Creek. This creates an abundant water supply for the surrounding area, supporting diverse wildlife and vegetation.

In terms of history, Mount Haggin is named after James Haggin, a prominent and influential figure in Montana's mining industry during the late 19th century. There are no specific legends or lore associated with this mountain, but its name serves as a testament to the rich mining heritage of the region.
