About this map

Bozeman Pass serves as the focal point of this survey, where the heavy infrastructure of the Bozeman Tunnel and a major Pipeline navigate the gap between the Bridger Range and the northern reaches of the Gallatin National Forest. This high-elevation corridor shows a landscape defined by industrial extraction and transit, punctuated by small outposts like Muir and West End. The topography is dense with evidence of the region’s mining history, notably the Anaconda Copper Mines and specialized operations like the Mountainside Mine and Woodland Mine.

Local history is preserved in landmarks such as the Malmborg Sch, indicating the spread of small mountain communities. Water sources like Jackson Creek and Billman Creek carve through the terrain, while the boundary of Gallatin Co Park Co marks the administrative divide at the summit. The presence of numerous Comm Facilities atop the peaks reflects the pass's modern importance as a telecommunications and utility hub.
