About this map

Philipsburg sits at the heart of this Western Montana landscape, where the Philipsburg Valley meets the rising terrain of the Deerlodge National Forest. This 2017 study illustrates the town's position relative to its historic mining and ranching surroundings, showing the established grid of streets like W Sutter St and E Broadway St, along with the Philipsburg Cem and the local airstrip at Riddick Field.

The hydrology of the region is defined by the winding course of Flint Creek and the artificial engineering of the Marshall Cr Canal. To the southeast, the settlement of Rumsey and various gulches like Wyman Gulch and Stewart Gulch underscore the area's topographical complexity. Local landmarks such as Duffy Hill and Hope Hill rise above the valley floor, while southern reaches include the small community of Porters Corner and the waters of Trout Cr.
