1965 Map of Elevation Mountain

About this map

The rugged topography of the Clearwater State Forest dominates this mid-1960s survey, revealing a landscape defined by its mining heritage and scattered mountain settlements. Gold and silver mining activity is visible across the central and eastern portions of the map, notably near Anaconda Hill and Anderson Hill. The settlement of Garnet stands as a focal point for researchers, flanked by the Nancy Hanks Mine and Mountain View Mine. This area illustrates the late-stage development of high-elevation mining districts before many such sites were fully reclaimed or lost to time.
