2011 Map of Deep Creek Park

About this map

Deep Creek Park occupies a central position within this Montana landscape, where the terrain is defined by a complex network of canyons and high ridges. The drainage of Deep Creek and its tributaries, including the North Fork Deep Creek and South Fork Deep Creek, carve deep into the earth between Strawberry Ridge and Deep Creek Ridge. Human presence is minimal and concentrated on access routes like Calvert Rd, which skirts the northern boundaries near Deer Butte. This area serves as a primary catchment for several water sources, most notably Robertson Spring, situated just east of the central park area. The geography transitions from the steep walls of Devil Canyon and Temple Gulch in the north to the high prominence of Desolation Peak at the southern edge, illustrating the vertical character of the Cascade County backcountry.
