1996 Map of Maukey Gulch

About this map

Deer Lodge National Forest dominates this mountain landscape in Granite County, where the hydrological system of the Rock Creek drainage is documented in detail. The map shows the convergence of the West Fork Rock Creek and the Middle Fork Rock Creek, supporting a high-altitude environment defined by drainages like Maukey Gulch and Emerine Gulch. Industrial and administrative activity is evidenced by the McDonald Mine and the West Fork Work Center, suggesting the era's ongoing management of timber and mineral resources. Natural features such as Milo Lake and the expanse of Moose Meadows sit alongside human infrastructure like the Stephens Reservoir and a Gaging Station, illustrating the balance between wild forest land and the monitored flow of the region's vital water sources.
