2011 Map of Windy Hill

About this map

Windy Hill and the surrounding high-country terrain dominate this 2011 survey, revealing a landscape defined by sharp divides and alpine water bodies. The northeastern corner is home to the Elk River and its headwater tributaries like Nelson Creek, while the southern reaches are marked by the West Fork Madison River. High-altitude features such as Blue Lake and Fault Lake sit tucked between prominent peaks, including Cascade Mountain and Fossil Peak. The presence of the Gravelly Range Rd provides the primary access through this complex drainage network, which separates the Elk River Basin from the expansive Lobo Mesa. This map is particularly useful for understanding the hydrography of the region, tracing the paths of Hellroaring Creek and Cascade Creek as they descend from Crater Ridge and Divide Mountain.
