2020 Map of Canyon Ferry SE

About this map

Canyon Ferry Lake and the Missouri River dominate this modern topographic view of Broadwater County, where the high desert meets the wooded slopes of the Helena National Forest. The landscape is defined by deep, north-south running ravines such as Hellgate Gulch, White Gulch, and the locally significant Confederate Gulch. These drainages serve as natural conduits for both water and access, with historic routes like the Overland Trl and Avalanche Gulch Rd tracing the contours of the land. In the southeast, the Elk Meadows Ranch Airport indicates modern land use adjacent to the rugged terrain. The map captures the complex interaction of high-altitude forest boundaries and the expansive reservoir, reflecting the region's importance for both resource management and recreational access.
