1956 Map of Mc Curdy Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Tarryall Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in the mid-1950s, characterized by a complex network of drainage gulches and prominent summits like Bison Peak and McCurdy Mountain. This survey, updated with mid-1980s data, illustrates the primitive transportation routes used by early backcountry travelers, including the Brookside-McCurdy Trail and the Mc Curdy Park Trail. These paths connect the high basins of McCurdy Park and Hankins Pass through the dense terrain of the Lost Creek Wilderness. Along the southern edge of the quadrangle, Tarryall Creek provides a lower-elevation corridor where human activity is more concentrated at sites such as the Twin Eagles Picnic Area and Spruce Grove Campground. The map also captures the boundary between Park and Jefferson Counties, showing how the topography of Lost Creek and its many tributaries, such as Refrigerator Gulch, dictate the layout of the land within the Pike National Forest.
