2014 Map of Canyon Ferry SE

About this map

Canyon Ferry Lake dominates the southwestern portion of this landscape, its expansive waters meeting a shoreline etched with several prominent drainage systems. The rugged eastern terrain is defined by the steep rises of the Helena National Forest, where deep ravines like White Gulch and Number Sixteen Gulch cut through the high country. Historically significant pathways such as the Overland Trl and Lower Confederate Rd suggest the long-standing importance of this corridor for travel between the valley and the surrounding mountains. Significant watercourses including Avalanche Cr and Beaver Cr feed into the lake, while infrastructure like the Elk Meadows Ranch Airport and MT-284 provide modern access points. The transition from the flat lakefront at Goose Bay Ln to the shadowed depths of Hellgate Gulch illustrates the dramatic topographical shifts characteristic of this Broadwater County region.
