2024 Map of Homestake

About this map

The Continental Divide bisects this landscape where the rugged Boulder Mountains rise above the southeastern outskirts of Butte. Transitioning from the urban grid of neighborhoods like Floral Park and the small enclave at Skones, the map climbs toward the high passage at Homestake Pass. This crossing has long served as a critical corridor for transport, evidenced by the cluster of labels around the summit including Highview, Homestake, and the Homestake Lakes. To the south, smaller ranching or transit outposts such as Nine-Mile and Janney sit along Blacktail Creek, while the presence of Potters Field Cem near the city edge provides a poignant point of interest for genealogists. The map also captures the sprawling footprint of Bert Mooney Airport, positioned where the valley floor meets the foothills of the Deerlodge National Forest.
