1956 Map of Glentivar

About this map

Puma Hills dominate this high-altitude landscape of Park County, where the 1956 terrain is defined by complex drainage systems and several significant peaks. The small settlement of Glentivar serves as a lone hub in an area otherwise characterized by rugged peaks like Schoolmarm Mountain and Badger Mountain. This survey was conducted for the development of the Missouri River Basin and captures a network of resource-oriented infrastructure, including the prominent Aqueduct and La Salle Road. High-country passes such as Wilkerson Pass and La Salle Pass provide the primary routes through the mountains, while numerous family-named features like Rishaberger Mountain and Marksbury Gulch reflect the era's local geography. Water sources like Rishaberger Spring and Allen Creek provide a look at the hydrologic layout of the Pike National Forest interior before mid-century expansion.
