1964 Map of East Bay

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Polson serves as the gateway to the southern end of the lake on this mid-century topographic survey. The landscape is defined by the significant transition from the waters of Flathead Lake and the sheltered East Bay to the steep rises of Minesinger Ridge. The area's physical geography is intricately mapped, showing the complex drainage systems of Hellroaring Creek, Centipede Creek, and Skidoo Creek as they flow toward the shoreline. Localized landmarks like Finley Point and Turtle Lake provide specific points of reference for the varied terrain. This survey also records the vital infrastructure of the era, including the Northern Pacific railroad line, the Pablo Feeder Canal, and various gravel pits, which illustrate the industrial and agricultural activity supporting the local community during the 1960s.
