1961 Map of Beaverhead Rock SE

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The rugged southwestern landscape of Madison County comes into focus through this early 1960s study, defined by the prominent Ruby Range that dominates the eastern portion of the terrain. The map details a complex hydrological network where Mc Hessar Creek and Trout Creek descend from the highlands to the valley floor. Evidence of mineral exploration appears in the western foothills, where several Prospects are noted, suggesting the area's ongoing appeal to prospectors and geologists. Access into the higher elevations of Spring Canyon is marked by a rudimentary Jeep Trail, illustrating the remote nature of this part of Montana during the mid-century period. Numerous unnamed Springs and the seasonal path of Dry Creek further characterize the arid yet drainage-carved slopes of the range.
