1955 Map of Fridley Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Northern Pacific railroad tracks parallel the Yellowstone River through the eastern corridor of this terrain, connecting small sidings and communities during the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Gallatin National Forest, where numerous waterfalls like Grotto Falls and Palisade Falls drain from the Hyalite Ridge. Human activity is concentrated along the river valley and scattered mountain camps, including the Junior Hyalite Camp and the Ox Yoke Ranch. The presence of the Mountain View School and the now-vacant Big Creek School reflects the changing educational footprint of rural Park County. Notable landmarks such as a Historical Marker near the river and the Chisholm Cabin suggest a layer of early settlement and frontier history preserved within the timbered slopes of Fridley Peak.
