2017 Map of Sedan

About this map

Sedan sits at the northern edge of the Gallatin Range, where the high mountain terrain transitions into the creek-carved basins of the Gallatin National Forest. This 2017 topographic survey highlights the local geography of the Bridger Mountains and the Crazy Mountains foothills, centered around the Sedan Cem and the small settlement. The landscape is defined by prominent high points like Nixon Peak and the high spine of Battle Ridge, which separates the drainages of Flathead Cr and Brackett Cr. A network of rural roads, including Bridger Canyon Rd and Flathead Creek Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, connecting family-named landmarks and remote canyons such as Green Canyon. The area maintains its character as a high-altitude ranching and forest landscape, largely unchanged in its primary infrastructure over decades.
