1958 Map of Culdesac
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The Slickpoo St Joseph Mission and Glasby Indian Cemetery reflect the complex cultural history of Nez Perce County, where Catholic missions and Indigenous grounds meet the high agricultural plateaus. The landscape is defined by the dramatic elevation changes between the Clearwater River and the fertile Camas Prairie, connected by the winding Camas Prairie RR and the Winchester Grade. The engineering required to navigate Culdesac Hill is evident in the numerous tunnels and the railroad's path through Big Canyon. Rural life in the late 1950s centered around scattered educational and religious hubs like Forest Lawn Sch and Coldsprings School, alongside vanished locations such as Chesley (Site) and the isolated German Settlement.
