About this map

The southern reaches of Beaverhead National Forest dominate the northern landscape of this Beaverhead County study, where drainage systems like E Fork Clover Cr and Second Wolverine Cr carve through high-elevation terrain. The topography is defined by significant landmarks such as Merden Peak, which overlooks a transition from wooded slopes to the open valley floor. In the south, the Red Rock River feeds into the expansive Lima Reservoir, a critical water feature for the region's agricultural and ecological health.

Local transportation and land access are marked by a network of rural routes including N Centennial Rd and Whiskey Row. These roads connect isolated ranching areas and provide passage to Lyons Bridge at the river's crossing. The map reveals the intricate water network supporting this landscape, from the smaller Sandy Cr and Price Cr to the primary flow of Wolverine Cr, reflecting the vital importance of irrigation and water rights in this part of Montana.
