1968 Map of Half Dome Crag

About this map

Blackfeet Indian Reservation and Glacier National Park intersect in this high-altitude Montana landscape, where the boundary lines meet the northern edge of the Lewis and Clark National Forest. The map documents a rugged drainage network defined by Badger Creek and its various forks, including the evocatively named Killem Quick Creek and Slippery Hoof Creek. Cultural evidence is sparse in this wilderness, though the location of Palookaville (Site) is noted, providing a specific point of interest for researchers of local place-names and vanished settlements. Distinctive topographical landmarks like Half Dome Crag and Little Plume Peak tower over a series of remote alpine waters, including Minnie White Horse Lake and Kiyo Crag Lake, connected only by occasional Jeep Trails.
