2020 Map of Buxton

About this map

Buxton and Feely sit along a transport corridor in the high country of Silver Bow County, where the landscape is defined by the steep transition toward the Continental Divide. The terrain is deeply incised by a network of drainage features such as German Gulch and Seven Springs Cr, which flow through the eastern reaches of the Deerlodge National Forest. This 2020 record of the area highlights the persistent importance of natural landmarks like Deer Lodge Pass and Sunday Ridge in guiding movement across the mountainous divide. Local land use is characterized by a mix of forestry, ranching at sites like the Morris Angus Ranch, and outdoor recreation along the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. The map provides a precise look at the rural road network, including S Buxton Rd and Divide Creek Rd, that connects these isolated settlements.
