2020 Map of Antelope Creek

About this map

Deerlodge National Forest covers much of this high-country landscape in Granite County, Montana, where the steep terrain of the John Long Mountains is carved by a complex network of seasonal and perennial drainages. The map reveals a remote geography defined by winding routes like Rock Creek Rd and Marshall Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the valley floors. Water is the primary architect of the land here, with Antelope Creek and its tributary, S Fork Antelope Creek, cutting through the southern half of the quadrangle. To the north, N Fork Spring Creek and S Fork Spring Creek drain the slopes near Trail Gulch. The presence of names like Sluice Gulch and Wildcat Gulch suggests a history of prospectors or early pioneers moving through these mountain draws.
