2014 Map of Briggs Ranch

About this map

Briggs Ranch serves as a lone settlement marker in this high-elevation landscape of Beaverhead County, where the topography is defined by the winding course of the Red Rock River. The map documents a network of canyons and gulches, including Ashbough Canyon and Little Ashbough Canyon, which drain into the river valley. Local access is marked by specific named routes like Ashbough Trl, Wolfe Ln, and Bimat Ln, providing a detailed look at the ranching infrastructure and land divisions in this part of Montana during the early 21st century. The drainage patterns are intricate, featuring several seasonal or small-scale water sources such as Sage Cr, Burnt-Willow Cr, and Knox Spring. A unique depression known as The Basin sits nestled among the ridges near Big Spring Gulch, illustrating the complex geological features of the region.
