2014 Map of Ibex Mountain

About this map

Crazy Mountains dominate this high-elevation landscape within the Gallatin National Forest, where steep drainages and mountain peaks define the topography. The map centers on significant summits like Ibex Mtn and Elk Mtn, while the lower elevations are marked by a series of bench roads and water-management systems. The presence of the Big Ditch and Criswell Ditch suggests a history of water diversion for agricultural use on the flats below the peaks. Numerous creek systems, including Cottonwood Creek and Rock Creek, descend from the forest into the more accessible ranching or grazing lands. The road network, featuring routes such as Robinson Bench Rd and Cottonwood Bench Rd, traces the contours of the benchland, providing access to these more remote stretches of Park County.
