2011 Map of Everson Creek

About this map

Bloody Dick Creek flows through the northern reaches of this Beaverhead County landscape, an area defined by long-standing cattle ranching and historic mining operations. In the early 21st century, the working character of the land remains evident through family holdings like JS Brenner Ranch and Donovan Ranch. The northern hills around Sullivan Gulch are punctuated by several mineral claims, including the Starlight Mine, Bloody Dick Creek Mine, and Monument Mine, reflecting the region's enduring connection to extraction. Further south, the landscape is shaped by the drainage of Horse Prairie Creek and its many tributaries, such as North Fork Everson Creek and Black Canyon Creek. Infrastructure like the Donovan Airstrip and Confederate Dam underscore the local management of this expansive high-country environment.
