2014 Map of Doherty Mountain

About this map

Deerlodge National Forest lands dominate the western edge of this Jefferson County landscape, where the high country transitions into the sweeping Boulder Valley. The topography is defined by dramatic elevations and deep drainages, including Black Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon, which carve through the foothills of Doherty Mtn. This 2014 survey documents a rugged portion of Montana where transportation is limited to primary corridors like MT-69, which follows the natural grade of the valley floor. The map highlights distinct landmarks such as Sheep Rock and Red Hill, providing a clear record of the area's natural boundaries and the interface between public forest lands and the valley's open terrain.
