1973 Map of Mica Peak

About this map

Mica Peak dominates this 1970s landscape, serving as a prominent high point for specialized facilities like the Mica Peak Air Force Station and several Radio Towers. The terrain is defined by the complex drainage systems of Saltese Creek and Mica Creek, while the Saltese Flats provide a distinct contrast in the northwest corner. This era shows a transition in land use, from the recreational grounds of Liberty Lake Regional Park to the industrial and logistical corridor of the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific Railroad and an old Railroad Grade near the settlement of Manito. Genealogists will find particular value in the identification of local burial sites, specifically the Mica Creek Cem and Mica Peak Cem, located along the winding rural routes of Starr Road and Molter Road.
