Encyclopedia > Boulder River (southwestern Montana)

The Boulder River is a tributary of the Jefferson River, approximately 71 mi (114 km) long, in southwestern Montana in the United States.


It rises in the Rocky Mountains at the continental divide in the Deerlodge National Forest in western Jefferson County. It flows east and southeast through the mountains past Boulder, then south to join the Jefferson near Cardwell.


The river is a popular destination for fly fishing.

Missouri River, Fort Peck Dam to State line.--Half of the Missouri River drainage area of 44,500 square miles between Fort Peck Dam and the border of North Dakota is in the Milk River drainage.
Yellowstone Montana Fly Fishing, Madison River (2557 words)
From the lake to the bridge at Highway 87 the river channel is the result of the rapid discharge of impounded waters rapidly loosed by the removal of the natural dam.
This confluence of the two streams is Madison Junction (as is the intersection of the three roads that parallel the rivers.) The river is seductive in its apparently placid flow.
Because the river is under fit to its valley, the gravels of its bottom are poorly sorted and provide a diverse range of sizes in close proximity to one another.
