The St Regis River corridor serves as the primary artery for transportation and settlement in this 1957 survey of the Montana-Idaho borderlands. Small communities such as Haugan, De Borgia, and Henderson are strung along the valley, anchored by the competing lines of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific and the Northern Pacific railroads. The map documents an era when the mountain extraction economy was deeply embedded in the landscape, shown through numerous mining operations like the Saranac Consolidated Mine and Rock Island Mine tucked into the steep drainages.
