1952 Map of Argenta

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Mining operations and remote ranching dominate this mid-century look at the Pioneer Mountains foothills within the Beaverhead National Forest. The settlement of Argenta serves as the hub for a landscape scarred by hard-rock extraction, featuring industrial landmarks like the Site of Saltgman Smelter and a cluster of named workings including the Anaconda Mine, Tuscarora Mine, and Ferdinand Mine. These sites speak to the area's silver and lead heritage, while the Argenta Cem and various family-named features like the Fabac Ranch and Meine Cow Camp ground the map in local genealogy.
