2020 Map of Castle Town

About this map

Lewis & Clark National Forest encompasses the high country of the Castle Mountains in this modern survey of Meagher County. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations like Wapiti Peak and Elk Peak, which overlook a network of creek drainages including Warm Springs Cr and Alabaugh Cr. The map centers on the historical site of Castle Town, where the Castle Cem remains a quiet landmark of the area's pioneer past. Nearby, the settlement of Robinson is situated among several ridges and old road connections such as the Lucky Dollar and Bergs Jeep. Local water features, notably Alabaugh-Castle Lake and Castle Lake, suggest a landscape shaped by both alpine hydrology and historical land use. The presence of Yankee Jim Ridge and Hamilton Ridge further illustrates the complex topography of this high-elevation Montana environment.
