1988 Map of Emigrant
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Yellowstone River flows through the northern reaches of Paradise Valley, framing a landscape defined by the transition from river bottomlands to the high peaks of the Gallatin National Forest. This 1980s-era survey captures several established community centers, including the historic resort area at Chico Hot Springs and the nearby settlement of Chico. The presence of Tailings and numerous Prospects along Emigrant Creek points to the area's long-standing connection to mineral extraction, particularly near the St Julian Mine on the slopes of Emigrant Peak. Local heritage is anchored by landmarks like St Johns Church and the Chico Cemetery, while the varied terrain of Conlin Gulch and Maze Gulch illustrates the complex drainage patterns feeding the main river valley.
