2011 Map of Kings Hill

About this map

Forest Green and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the Little Belt Mountains define this section of central Montana. The map highlights a recreation-centered landscape, anchored by the King Hill Winter Sports Area and the high point of Porphyry Peak, where the Porphyry Peak Lookout stands watch. This area is a critical drainage divide, with Sheep Creek flowing south toward Forest Green and Belt Creek trending north. The transport corridor over Kings Hill Pass connects these watersheds, serving as a primary route through the National Forest. The land use pattern reflects a mix of preservation and extraction, from the Kings Hill Campground and Lamb Creek Campground to industrial points like the Kings Hill Quarry. Dozens of mountain drainages, including Mizpah Creek, Deadman Creek, and Cleveland Creek, carve the landscape, while named ridges like Log Spur Divide 4 indicate the historic and modern importance of forest management and topography in Meagher County.
