2017 Map of Spink Point

About this map

John Long Mountains define the high terrain of this portion of Granite County, where the borders of Lolo National Forest and Deerlodge National Forest converge. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of drainages and named gulches, including Golden Gulch and Mason Gulch in the north, and Chico Gulch in the south. These features suggest a history of prospecting and drainage-based navigation through the timbered slopes. High points such as Sliderock Mtn, Spink Point, and the prominent Sandstone Ridge provide significant landmarks across the quadrangle. Human activity is evidenced by the passage of Co Rd 354 and Brewster Creek Rd, which follow the natural contours of the land, while Mountain Spring serves as a vital water source in the heart of the forest.
