2020 Map of Henderson Mountain

About this map

Deerlodge National Forest dominates this mountain landscape in Granite County, where steep drainages and high summits define the local geography. The central heights of Henderson Mtn and Sunrise Mtn provide a dramatic backdrop to the winding Flint Creek valley. To the south, the terrain levels into the Phillipsburg Valley, a key topographical feature for local settlement and transit. The map documents a complex network of forest and county roads, including Black Pine Rd and Henderson Creek Rd, which provide access to the various gulches that carve into the range. Named features like Gaylord Gulch, Pickett Gulch, and Wyman Gulch suggest a history of prospecting or timber activity, common throughout this region of Montana. Waterways such as Smart Cr and Sawmill Cr thread through the forest, marking the primary drainage patterns for the surrounding peaks.
