1996 Map of Racetrack

From the high peaks of Mount Powell, drainage flows eastward through Powell Creek and Dempsey Creek toward the valley floor, where the Clark Fork river defines the eastern boundary. The presence of Montana State Prison Ranch No 2 and family-named landmarks like Perkins Ranch and Ryan alongside numerous gravel pits suggests a working landscape defined by state-managed agriculture and local industry. Genealogists and researchers can trace the old property lines and infrastructure that once supported these remote operations in Powell County.
