About this map

The settlement of Mammoth sits along the S Boulder River in this high-altitude Madison County landscape, where the Tobacco Root Mountains dominate the horizon. This 2014 survey captures the complex drainage patterns of the Deerlodge National Forest, where steep gulches and canyons such as Mill Canyon and Bumby Gulch give way to prominent peaks like Manhead Mtn, Brownback Mtn, and Dead Mtn.

Water is a defining element of the terrain, from the alpine waters of Rock Cr Lake and Beall Lake to the secluded depths of Hells Hole. The map details the transition from the river valley, navigated by S Boulder Rd, to the more remote heights of the Beaverhead National Forest in the southeast. It serves as a precise record of the physical geography and named landmarks that define this stretch of the Montana wilderness.
