About this map

Gallatin National Forest and Custer National Forest meet in this high-altitude landscape dominated by the Boulder River drainage. The river corridor, traced by Main Boulder Rd, serves as the primary artery through the valley, supported by crossings like Twomile Bridge and Flemming Bridge. This area is defined by sharp elevation shifts between the river valley and prominent peaks such as Chrome Mtn and Contact Mtn.

Topographic details reveal a complex network of tributaries including Frozen-to-Death Cr and W Chippy Cr, which feed the main river from the surrounding ridges. The eastern portion of the map is dominated by the East Boulder Plateau, while the presence of the Park Co Sweet Grass Co boundary line and the survey markers for various PB parcels indicate the complex land management of this federal forest land.
