About this map

Georgetown Lake dominates this high-country landscape on the border of Granite and Deer Lodge counties. In the late twentieth century, the area served as a focal point for recreation and water management within the Deerlodge National Forest. The map details an extensive infrastructure of boat launches and marinas, such as Stuarts Marina and Georgetown Lake Marina, alongside unique land-use features like the Haggin Dude Ranch and Camp Lahepia.

A complex hydraulic network is visible, including the Aqueduct and Penstock feeding the Powerplant on Flint Creek. Topographical transitions are sharp, moving from the open Philipsburg Valley into the forested peaks surrounding Echo Lake and Rainbow Bay. Numerous prospects and a Gravel Pit scattered across the terrain point to the region's enduring history of mineral exploration and resource extraction.
