2020 Map of Roy Gulch

About this map

Ponderosa Pines serves as the primary settlement area in this high-elevation landscape where Gallatin Co and Broadwater Co meet. The terrain is defined by the significant incision of Sixteenmile Cr through Sixteenmile Canyon in the north and the uplift of the Horseshoe Hills to the south. A dense network of local roads and trails, including Pioneer Rd, Skyline Rd, and Lone Wolf Trl, connects the various gulches and flats that characterize the region's topography. The distribution of natural water sources, such as Bullrock Spring, Eastham Spring, and Townsend Spring, highlights the historical importance of localized water access for ranching or settlement in this complex system of ridges and canyons.
