1968 Map of Henry Gulch

About this map

The Red Rock River meanders through the heart of this Beaverhead County landscape, defining the local drainage and topographic character during the late 1960s. The river is flanked by rising terrain where Henry Gulch and Centennial Gulch converge from the south, illustrating the drainage patterns that shaped early ranching and water rights in this corner of Montana. Evidence of human presence is sparse on this high-country sheet, with the isolated Chris Cabin standing as a solitary landmark near the headwaters of Basin Creek. Numerous unnamed Spring and Springs labels across the ridges suggest a landscape where water sources were critical for the few livestock operations managed within the township and range boundaries. This map captures the territory before modern developments, showing a complex network of canyons and gulches like Little Basin Creek in their mid-century state.
