1968 Map of Lyman Pass

About this map

Middle Mountain dominates this landscape in Cassia County, providing a steep backdrop for the historic Applegate Trail that traverses Junction Valley below. The map documents the high-desert terrain during the late 1960s, a place defined by its seasonal springs and rugged drainage systems like Emery Canyon and Cottonwood Creek. The high-altitude boundary of the Sawtooth National Forest extends into the northeastern corner, where the topography rises toward Lyman Pass.
