1938 Map of Chief Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Glacier National Park defines the vast landscape of this 1938 revision, illustrating the high mountain passes and glacier-carved valleys before mid-century infrastructure changed the backcountry. The Going-to-the-Sun Highway carves through the center of the range, connecting the interior to historic lodges like the Many Glacier Chalet and Sperry Chalet. These sites, along with the Granite Park Chalet, represent the early era of wilderness tourism and park management when remote outposts were essential for travelers navigating by foot or horse.
