1950 Map of Cliff Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Madison River flows through the heart of the Beaverhead National Forest in this mid-century survey, anchoring a landscape of remote ranches and early sporting lodges. The river corridor is dotted with specialized outposts like the Madison River Lodge and Elliotts Resort, indicating the area's mid-century role as a destination for outdoor recreation and ranching. To the west, the high elevations of Granite Mountain and Flatiron Mountain overlook a series of specialized seasonal camps including the West Fork Cow Camp and several sites marked as abandoned, such as Shakelford Cow Camp. The map provides a look at the backcountry infrastructure of the era, from the USFS West Fork Camp to family-named landmarks like Schusters Place and Grahams Place. The southern reach is dominated by the distinctive blue waters of Cliff Lake and the Wade Lake Camp Grounds, situated near the sprawling Missouri Flats.
