About this map

The Missouri River Headwaters serves as the geographic anchor of this 1992 study, where the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin rivers converge to form the Missouri. This region is a complex intersection of mountain ranges and valley floors, including the Gallatin Valley and the towering Bridger Range to the northeast. To the west, the Tobacco Root Mountains contain a legacy of resource extraction, evidenced by labels like the Garnet Gold Mine and Strawberry Mine.

Cultural and historical sites are densely mapped, from the sprawling campus of Montana State University in Bozeman to the Madison Buffalo Jump State Monument near Logan. The map details the transition of the local economy through its transport networks, showing the Burlington Northern and Montana Rail Link rail lines serving agricultural hubs like Belgrade, Manhattan, and Amsterdam. Historical curiosities such as Bozeman Hot Springs and the Stateler Monument provide touchpoints for local genealogists and researchers exploring the development of Gallatin and Madison counties in the late 20th century.
