1954 Map of Elk Park

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Continental Divide winds through this 1954 topographical survey, marking the high country between the mining-heavy terrain of Butte and the meadows of Elk Park. This landscape is defined by the extraction economy of the mid-20th century, featuring several dormant operations such as the Ruby Mine, Agate Mine, and Eureka Mine. Along the southwestern edge, the urban fringe of McQueen and the landmark recreation site at Columbia Gardens provide a sharp contrast to the high peaks like Sheepshead Mountain and Whitetail Peak.
