About this map

Zortman and Landusky anchor this portrait of the Little Rocky Mountains in north-central Montana, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of gulches and isolated peaks. The map details the transition between Blaine Co and Phillips Co, revealing a landscape shaped by historical mining interest and high-altitude topography. Landmarks such as Gold Bug Butte, Mission Peak, and Antoine Butte rise above the drainage systems of Ruby Cr and Rock Cr.

Settlement patterns concentrate near the base of the mountains, with Hays and Lodge Pole positioned along the northern reaches. For local historians, the inclusion of the Zortman Cemetery and the Zortman Airport provides specific points of interest within the town's immediate vicinity. The intricate network of canyons, such as White Cow Canyon and White Horse Canyon, illustrates the complex erosion patterns that characterize this segment of the Missouri River country.
