About this map

The small settlement of Sedan serves as the focal point for this landscape in the northern reaches of the Bridger Range. At an elevation where the mountain front meets the rolling ranch land, the community is represented by its residential layout and the nearby Sedan Cem. The area is characterized by a high density of watercourses that define the local topography, including the drainage systems of Flathead Creek and the multiple forks of Dry Creek.

To the south, the terrain rises sharply into the Gallatin National Forest, dominated by the prominent Battle Ridge and the high summit of Nixon Peak. The network of local thoroughfares like Bridger Canyon Rd and Old Flathead Creek Rd follows the natural contours of the land, tracing the path of early transport routes between the Gallatin and Shields River valleys. This contemporary survey preserves the names of small drainages like Carrol Creek and Cache Creek, which remain vital landmarks for local history and property research.
