1965 Map of Cygnet Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Lindbergh Lake and the winding Swan River dominate this mid-1960s survey of the Missoula County high country. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of glacial lakes and mountain drainage systems, including Cygnet Lake, Loon Lake, and the remote Stoner Lake. While much of the terrain is defined by the protected boundaries of the Flathead National Forest and Lolo National Forest, the map records essential markers of human presence in the wilderness. The Swan Valley Sch stands near the northern edge, serving the dispersed mountain community, while the Elbow Lookout Tower provides a critical vantage point for forest management. Numerous unnamed pack trails and standard trails spiderweb through the topography, tracing routes between waterways like Holland Creek and Barber Creek, offering a detailed look at the backcountry infrastructure used by foresters and early outdoor enthusiasts during this era.
