1966 Map of Barren Peak

About this map

The Kootenai National Forest dominates this mid-1960s terrain, recorded just as new forestry and woodland revisions were being documented. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Barren Peak and Teeters Peak, where a lookout tower provided a critical vantage point for fire management. The map reveals the labor-intensive nature of early resource extraction and access, featuring the Waylett Mine and various prospects tucked into the drainage of the South Fork Miller Creek.
