2017 Map of Roundhead Butte

About this map

The Absaroka Range dominates this high-altitude landscape along the Montana and Wyoming border, where the protected boundaries of Yellowstone National Park and the Gallatin National Forest meet. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations including Roundhead Butte, Lookout Mtn, and Sugarloaf Mtn, which overlook a complex network of alpine drainage systems. The southern portion of the map is marked by the Slough River and its confluence with Cutoff Cr, while the Slough Creek Trail provides a documented route through the drainage of Slough Creek. Named landmarks like Frenchy Meadow and Anderson Ridge suggest the early footprints of trappers or surveyors in this remote wilderness. This map provides a detailed view of the watershed divide where Bull Cr and its southern fork flow north through the forest towards the state line.
