About this map

Helena National Forest and Deerlodge National Forest converge in this high-elevation region of Powell County, where the Continental Divide’s influence on the local watershed is clearly visible. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of the Spotted Dog Creek basin, including its Middle Fork, South Fork, and West Fork branches.

Remote mountain access is provided by primitive routes such as Jake Creek Road and Emery Road, which navigate the steep terrain toward sites like Rocker Gulch. The map records a wilderness area primarily used for forestry and watershed management, where smaller streams like Jake Creek and Fred Burr Creek carve through the deep valleys of the national forest system, illustrating the headwaters that feed the larger regional river networks.
