About this map

Price Creek and its many tributaries define this high-elevation landscape in Montana's Beaverhead County. The terrain is dominated by the steep slopes of the Blacktail Mountains in the west, giving way to a network of drainages including Jake Canyon and the notable Red Canyon in the southeast. This 2017 survey reflects a remote ranching and grazing environment where access is limited to thoroughfares like Blacktail Rd and Rock Creek Rd.

A intricate watershed system feeds into Blacktail Deer Cr, with numerous named streams such as Cottonwood Cr, Brock Cr, and Heifer Cr carving through the mountain draws. The map illustrates the sophisticated water management and natural drainage patterns essential to this arid mountain region, where small creeks and canyons like East Cr and Bull Cr provide the primary geographical markers for navigation and land use.
