2024 Map of Butte North

About this map

The Boulder Mountains and the Continental Divide dominate the northern landscape of this region, providing a high-altitude backdrop to the historic mining and urban centers of Silver Bow County. To the south, the city of Butte and its neighboring settlements like Walkerville and Centerville reveal the dense street grids and institutional landmarks that defined this high-desert industrial hub. Notable civic features include the Butte-Silver Bow County Courthouse and the campus of Montana Technological University, while the surrounding terrain is deeply etched with drainages like Hail Columbia Gulch and Butcher Gulch. The map captures a complex environment where industrial infrastructure meets the protected lands of the Deerlodge National Forest, alongside vital water resources such as Moulton Reservoir Number One and Silver Bow Creek. Small outlying communities like Rocker sit near the junction of major transit routes, reflecting the area's continued importance as a mountain crossroads.
