2017 Map of Deer Park

About this map

Sixteenmile Cr winds through the southern reaches of this landscape, carving the prominent Sixteenmile Canyon along the boundary between Broadwater and Gallatin counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and springs, including Farley Spring and A-Frame Spring, which feed into numerous named gulches like Miners Gulch and Sawmill Gulch. These names suggest a history of resource extraction and seasonal industry within the timbered slopes of the Helena National Forest. Small settlements such as Cedar Hollow and Deer Park provide isolated points of habitation connected by a primitive road network, including Dry Creek Rd and Sixteen Mile Rd. The mapping reveals a transition from forested uplands to the structured canyon floor, where the convergence of creek and road defines the local geography.
