About this map

Crow Creek Falls cascades within the high country of the Helena National Forest and Deerlodge National Forest, where the border of Jefferson and Broadwater counties divides this mountainous landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of high-altitude basins and parks, including Airplane Park, Manley Park, and Poe Park, which served as distinct landmarks for early forest travelers and surveyors. The drainage network is dense, with Big Tizer Cr and Little Tizer Cr feeding into the larger system of Crow Creek.

Evidence of historical resource use and early naming remains in features like Church Spring, Bonanza Spring, and Two Sam Spring, along with the cattle-and-timber era geography of Hog Hollow and Slim Sam Basin. The map captures the complex system of forest access roads such as the Natl Forest Develop Road 277 Rd and Johnny Gulch Rd, which navigate the steep elevations between Bonanza Ridge and the deep cuts of Jenkins Gulch.
