1957 Map of Diamond Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Diamond Peak and Bell Mountain dominate this high-altitude landscape along the border of Lemhi and Butte counties. The 1957 field check records a region defined by its rugged drainages and mid-century resource extraction, particularly evident at the Badger Mine and Valley View Mine. While the settlement of Clyde serves as a lone residential marker, the map is primarily a record of the high-country economy, showing numerous prospects and shafts tucked into the slopes. The water network is vital and complex, featuring Pass Creek Lake and high-basin water sources like Fallert Springs and Fowler Springs. A system of ditches and a pipeline near Sunny Bar illustrate the infrastructure required to manage water in this arid Idaho environment, while family-named landmarks like Kaufman Gulch and Mormon Gulch provide clues to early ranching and prospecting history.
