1997 Map of Coyote Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2002

About this map

Beaverhead National Forest land dominates this high-country survey of southwestern Montana, where the terrain transitions from the steep peaks of the Beaverhead Mountains down to the open expanse of Poverty Flats. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Coyote Creek, Grimes Creek, and the curiously named Bloody Dick Creek, which carve deep canyons and gulches through the forest. Evidence of historical resource extraction is visible in several locations, from the Moument Mine at the southern edge to various unnamed mines and prospects scattered along Big Hollow and Sullivan Gulch. Settlement is sparse and focused on administrative and agricultural outposts, such as the Horse Prairie Guard Station and Stocker Ranch. A system of four-wheel drive tracks and trails provides the only access through this interior territory, following established routes like Roberts Gulch to manage the timber and mineral interests of the era.
