About this map

The Missouri River corridor north of Townsend dominates this 1980s landscape, where the waters of Canyon Ferry Lake fill the broad valley floor. Along the eastern shoreline, the mouth of Confederate Gulch and the smaller Horse Creek drainage indicate where tributary waters meet the reservoir. This area serves as a point of transition where the historical river course is replaced by the expansive water level at 3797 feet, creating new recreational landmarks like the Campground near the lake's edge. To the west, the terrain rises toward the Elkhorn Mountains, marked by drainage systems such as Whitehorse Creek and the small settlement of Antelope Springs. The presence of a small Cem and several gravel extraction sites like the Gravel Pit suggest a landscape used for both local infrastructure and small-scale community needs amidst the ranching and utility corridors defined by a major transmission line and pipeline.
