About this map

Norris and Red Bluff anchor this Madison County landscape where high plains terrain meets significant geothermal and water resources. The convergence of Mt-84 and US Highway 287 N at Norris defines the local transportation network, serving as a gateway to the surrounding highlands. This area is characterized by a series of drainage systems, including Hot Springs Cr and Bradley Cr, which carve through the topography toward the Madison River in the southeast corner.

Local landmarks such as Bear Trap Hot Springs highlight the geologic character of the region, while rural thoroughfares like Sterling Rd and Cold Spring Rd provide access to the hinterlands between Burnt Cr and Woods Cr. The map's township and range grid reveals the orderly division of the land across sections of T3S R1W and T3S R1E, illustrating the persistent structure of Montana's ranching and rural development.
