1964 Map of Glade Mountain

Evidence of resource monitoring and backcountry access is found in the Lookout Tower perched atop the mountain and a network of unimproved routes like the Jeep Trail. The northern edge is carved by the winding course of Disappointment Creek, while the southern reaches descend toward Far Draw. These features represent a mid-century period of forest management and ranching infrastructure, capturing the specific geography of The Glade before more modern developments altered the wilderness character of the region.
