About this map

Hoffman sits at the eastern edge of this landscape where the Gallatin and Park county lines meet within the expansive Gallatin National Forest. The terrain is defined by significant elevations and drainage systems, including the prominent peaks of Chestnut Mtn and the namesake Bald Knob. Water features are concentrated in the west and south, with Old Cooper Reservoir and a series of alpine waters like Crystal Lake, Bear Lakes, and Bear Canyon Pine Lake dotting the high country.

Transport and access are traced through rugged corridors such as Trail Creek Rd and Goose Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land. Deep drainages like Morrison Gulch, Browns Gulch, and Bear Canyon emphasize the verticality of the region. Notable geological landmarks such as Chimney Rock and the sweeping Goose Ridge provide clear navigation points for those studying the wilderness areas bordering Miner Cr and Pine Cr.
