About this map

The Blacktail Mountains dominate this high-elevation portion of Beaverhead County, providing a glimpse of the drainage patterns and rugged geography that define this part of Montana. Waterways such as Blacktail Deer Cr and Price Cr carve through the terrain, fed by smaller tributaries like Crazy Springs Cr and Cottonwood Cr. The map highlights the significant elevation changes found within Jake Canyon and the sharply defined Red Canyon to the south.

Infrastructure is minimal, centered primarily on primitive access routes like Blacktail RD and Rock Creek RD, which traverse the open landscape. This 2014 survey documents the Public Land Survey System grids, showing township divisions like t10s r7w and t11s r7w. The naming of minor features like Heifer Cr and Bull Cr reflects the area's long-standing connection to livestock and ranching traditions in the American West.
