2017 Map of Luke Mountain

About this map

The Little Blackfoot River carves through this rugged Montana landscape, serving as a primary corridor for both historical and modern travel. The legacy of the West's rail expansion is evidenced by the Northern Pacific Railroad Overpass, which crosses the terrain near the Little Blackfoot River Bridge. Steep drainages like Shearing Plant Gulch and Homestead Gulch underscore the area's agricultural and ranching history. High points such as Luke Mtn and Castle Rock dominate the skyline, while smaller watercourses including Gimlet Cr and Sixmile Cr feed into the larger river systems. The southern portion of the sheet features the Clark Fork and landmarks like Rocky Ridge, illustrating the complex topography that shaped local land use and transit routes.
