About this map

Big Sky and its surrounding mountain developments are captured here at a moment of significant growth in the Gallatin Range. The landscape is defined by the high peaks of Gallatin Peak and Wilson Peak, which shadow a complex network of seasonal and residential roads such as Antler Ridge Rd and Ousel Falls Rd. The transition from ranching heritage to a mountain resort economy is evident in the presence of the Crail Ranch and B K Ranch alongside the Big Sky Meadow Village and the Big Sky Golf Course.

Outdoor recreation and wilderness proximity are central to this area, with numerous water bodies including Lillian Lake, Dudley Lake, and the remote Hell Roaring Lake. Local history is anchored by landmarks like the Soldiers Chapel Cemetery near Big Sky Canyon Village, while the industrial past is represented by the Table Mountain Mine to the east. The map provides a precise look at the drainage systems that feed into the Gallatin River, including the North Fork West Fork Gallatin River and Dudley Creek.
