1986 Map of Elephant Rocks

About this map

Judith Gap sits at the southern edge of this central Montana survey, where the prairie meets the rising geography of the Snowy Mountains. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several small waterways, including Meadow Creek, Ross Fork Creek, and the East Fork Roberts Creek. In the late twentieth century, the area remained dominated by large-scale ranching and drainage patterns, marked by the distinctive Elephant Rocks landmark and the incision of Stevens Gulch.
