2014 Map of Orofino Creek

About this map

Clark Fork defines the western valley of this landscape, where the settlement of Racetrack sits between the river and the rising eastern foothills. The map reveals a complex water-management network necessary for mountain agriculture, featuring the Valton Ditch and numerous drainages like Dempsey Cr and Orofino Cr flowing down from the high country. In the southeast, the terrain climbs sharply toward O'Donnell Mtn within the Deerlodge National Forest. This 2014 survey documents the persistence of early ranching and transit corridors, where Eastside Rd and Boulder Rd follow the natural contours of the land. Smaller residential and rural markers like Sand Hollow and family-named landmarks such as Reese Anderson Cr provide specific points of interest for those researching the local geography and historical land use of Powell County.
