About this map

The Beaverhead River carves a central path through this section of Beaverhead County, creating a corridor for both natural drainage and modern transport. The settlement of Dalys and the southern locality of Grayling sit along this waterway, which is flanked by the dramatic formations of Pipe Organ Rock and the high elevations of Henneberry Ridge. The map illustrates a landscape defined by sharp transitions from the river valley to the steep gulches of the surrounding mountains, including Juniper Spring Gulch and Long Gulch.

In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the Clark Canyon Reservoir begins to dominate the terrain near the Clark Canyon settlement. Local infrastructure is anchored by the Henneberry Bridge and a network of canyon roads, including Lower Grasshopper Rd and Pipe Organ Rd, which navigate the complex topography. This survey provides a clear view of the relationship between the high peaks like Mooney Mtn and the vital water resources of Grasshopper Creek and Gallagher Creek.
