About this map

Big Sky Mountain Village serves as the focal point for this high-altitude landscape, where the Madison Range meets the developed ski infrastructure of southwest Montana. The terrain is dominated by the towering profile of Lone Mtn and the jagged Spanish Peaks to the north, creating a complex drainage network that feeds the Middle Fork W Fork Gallatin River. This 2014 survey documents the modern layout of the resort area, including the concentration of alpine lakes such as Lake Levinsky and the Ulerys Lakes.

The map highlights the intersection of public land management between Gallatin National Forest and Beaverhead National Forest. Away from the village and its residential corridors like Mountain Loop Rd, the wilderness character remains evident through features like the Andesite Lookout Tower and isolated basins such as Bear Basin and Beehive Basin. The network of creeks, including Jack Cr and Moonlight Cr, illustrates the area's hydrology before these waters join the larger Gallatin system.
