About this map

Deerlodge National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape in Granite County, where a complex network of drainages flows toward the larger Rock Creek system. The topography is defined by significant elevation changes, ranging from Lone Pine Ridge in the south to the deeply carved Eagle Canyon in the northeast. Water management and natural catchment are evident through features like Stephens Reservoir and Milo Lake, which anchor the central portion of the map.

Historically evocative names like Schoolmarm Gulch and Sapphire Gulch suggest the early mining and social history of the region. Transportation is limited to rugged corridors such as Skalkaho Rd and Rosss Fork Rd, illustrating the remote character of these mountains. The presence of Moose Meadows and various forks of Beaver Cr highlights a riparian environment that has long supported local wildlife and seasonal grazing.
