About this map

Wildhorse Hot Springs centers a landscape defined by geothermal activity and a complex network of agricultural water management in Lake County. The Little Bitterroot River meanders through the central valley, flanked by a grid of rural roads including Garden Creek Rd and Baxter Rd that reveal the 21st-century settlement patterns of this Montana region. The intersection of natural watercourses like Sullivan Creek and human-engineered features such as the Camas B Canal illustrates the ongoing importance of irrigation in the local economy. From the depths of Rattlesnake Gulch to the controlled waters behind Marine Dam and Aqua Dam, the map documents a terrain where drainage and storage are critical to land use. Notable landmarks and local family-named routes like Sederstrom and Marques Rd provide valuable waypoints for researchers studying the geographic heritage of the Hot Springs area.
