2024 Map of Elliston

About this map

Elliston serves as the primary settlement on this map, situated where the Little Blackfoot River meets Dog Creek. The landscape transition is evident between the residential streets of Wood Strip and the protected lands of the Helena National Forest. To the south, the Boulder Mountains dominate the terrain, harboring secluded high-elevation water bodies like Lilly Lake and Slate Lake. The transport network follows the river valley, with the historic W Old Mullen Trl and Old Mullan Trl tracing the paths used by early travelers across the Continental Divide. Numerous drainages such as Kinney Gulch and Mike Renig Gulch carve into the mountain slopes, indicating a terrain defined by narrow valleys and seasonal water flows. This modern survey provides an accurate view of current road access into the forest, including Natl Forest Develop Road 314 Rd and the Slate Lake Trl.
