1961 Map of Barker

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Lewis and Clark National Forest encompasses this mountain landscape, defined by high peaks and the remnants of historic mining activity in the Little Belt Mountains. The settlements of Barker and Hughesville sit within the drainage of Galena Creek and Daisy Cr, areas clearly marked with several Mine and Mines symbols. High points like Barker Mountain and Irene Peak tower over a complex network of waterways, including Dry Fork Belt Creek and Hoover Creek. The presence of a Tailings Pond near the northern border highlights the industrial heritage of the district, where mineral extraction once drove the local economy. A series of primitive routes, including the Sawmill Trail and various Pack Trails, snake through the steep terrain and across Hoover Ridge, following the paths of early prospectors and foresters across the Cascade and Judith Basin county line.
