1996 Map of Whitehall

About this map

The town of Whitehall serves as the focal point for this landscape, where the confluence of Whitetail Creek and Pipestone Creek meets the wide meanders of the Jefferson River. The topography transitions from the agricultural flats of Parrot Bench, supported by the Parrot Ditch, to the northern reaches of the Tobacco Root Mountains. This area is defined by a historical legacy of extraction, visible in the numerous mines and prospects scattered across Gold Hill and near Mayflower Gulch. Further south, the map details the rugged boundary of the Deerlodge National Forest, where high-elevation landmarks like Point of Rocks overlook the Westphal Basin. Genealogy researchers will find value in the location of the Whitehall Cemetery and smaller outlying locales like Renova and Piedmont. Local recreation is anchored by the Parrot Castle Fishing Access, while the complex drainage network includes features like Slough and Dry Lake.
