1965 Map of Bonner

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Industrial rail corridors and the convergence of the Blackfoot R and Clark Fork define this mid-century view of Missoula County. The settlements of Bonner, Piltzville, and Turah follow the narrow valley floors, hemmed in by the rising slopes of the Lolo National Forest. This era shows two major competing rail lines, the Burlington Northern and the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific, running parallel through the canyon toward McQuarrie Spur. The landscape is etched with the drainage patterns of Crystal Creek and Allen Creek, while the presence of numerous Gravel Pits along the riverbanks points to the area's active construction and infrastructure development during the 1960s and 1970s. Higher elevations like Bonner Mountain and Moccasin Ridge remain largely untamed forest land, contrasting with the busy transportation artery below.
