About this map

The Madison River and Jefferson River define the northern hydrology of this Gallatin County landscape, where an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure supports the regional agriculture. Channels like the Lower Jefferson Ditch, Francis-Wolbert Ditch, and Darlington Ditch crisscross the valley floor, indicating a sophisticated water management system tied to the area's ranching history. To the south, the terrain rises toward the prominent plateau of Table Mountain, providing a stark contrast to the low-lying river plains.

Transportation corridors follow historical routes, most notably the Old Yellowstone Trl which cuts across the northwest. Local landmarks such as the Fairview Cem and the Three Forks Airport serve as focal points for the community. The map also delineates the boundary between Broadwater and Gallatin counties, capturing the rural character and essential infrastructure of the Big Sky state in the early 21st century.
