About this map

Henderson Mountain dominates this portion of the Deerlodge National Forest, where steep drainages and mountain peaks define the topography of Granite County. The drainage network is complex, with Flint Creek flowing along the eastern boundary, fed by numerous seasonal and perennial streams including Sawmill Cr and Smart Cr. These watercourses have carved distinct geographic features like Gaylord Gulch and Pickett Gulch, which provide natural corridors through the high country.

A network of forest roads and county routes, such as Henderson Creek Rd and Black Pine Rd, provides access to these elevations. High points like Sunrise Mtn stand as prominent landmarks within the expansive protected forest. The map documents the intersection of several townships and ranges, illustrating the systematic land divisions used in this section of the Rocky Mountains during the early twenty-first century.
