2020 Map of Vinegar Hill

About this map

Vinegar Hill dominates the central landscape of this Beaverhead County interior, where the high-altitude terrain of southwestern Montana is defined by a network of drainage systems and rugged access routes. Water sources like Box Springs and high-mountain streams including Teddy Cr, Little Sage Cr, and Price Cr carve through the topography, illustrating the watershed patterns vital to high-country ranching and land management. The presence of specialized infrastructure, such as the Bureau of Land Management route BLM tc4, Teddy Creek Rd, and the Steamboat Rock Road, suggests a landscape primarily utilized for seasonal grazing, forestry, or transit between more established valley settlements. This 2020 survey provides a modern record of these remote corridors and the complex section lines of the Public Land Survey System that organize this part of the state.
