2001 Map of Ellis Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The Smith River winds through the northern portion of this Meagher County landscape, cutting a deep path through the canyonlands of the Helena National Forest. This 2001 revision highlights a terrain defined by high-elevation landforms such as the Dry Range and the prominent Haystack Bar. Water sources are critical markers across this topography, evidenced by numerous named features like Haystack Spring, Weston Spring, and the Weaning Corral Spring. The map documents early human presence through labels for Ruins and the Dabler Dam, while the extensive network of 4wd tracks suggests a remote region primarily accessed for ranching or forest management. Steep drainage systems like Ellis Canyon and Buffalo Canyon converge toward the larger river valley, illustrating the complex hydrologic patterns of the Helena Ranger District before the turn of the 21st century.
