1988 Map of Knowles Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Gallatin National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, where deep creek drainages converge near the high peaks of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. The map reveals a specialized local economy centered on high-altitude ranching and mineral extraction during the late 1980s. Working landscapes like Snowy Range Ranch and Mill Creek Ranch sit at the edge of the wilderness, while evidence of mining activity is preserved at the Barbara Ann Mine and a Strip Mine near Davis Creek. The topography is defined by prominent landmarks such as Knowles Peak, Arrow Peak, and the distinctive Castle Rock. Water sources are abundant, from the thermal or mineral suggestions of Montanapolis Springs to the branching forks of Mill Creek, including the West Fork Mill Creek and East Fork Mill Creek.
