About this map

The Judith Ranger District of the Lewis and Clark National Forest dominates this landscape, showing the managed wilderness of central Montana in the mid-1990s. The topography is defined by the sharp descent into Browns Canyon and the winding path of White Creek, which flows through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. High points like Pine Knob overlook a complex network of drainages including Alice Coulee and Hopkins Coulee.

Tracing the National Forest Boundary, the map reveals the transition between public forest lands and the surrounding terrain of Judith Basin County. The southeastern corner is particularly striking, where the terrain drops into the narrow confines of Antelope Gorge. This survey is a precise record of the hydrological network feeding into Wolf Creek and Antelope Creek, capturing the area as it was managed just before the turn of the twenty-first century.
