1969 Map of Midnight Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Bear Lake Range dominates this high-elevation Idaho landscape, straddling the border of Bear Lake and Franklin counties. Within the Cache National Forest, the terrain is defined by a dense network of hydrologic features and steep canyons, including Copenhagen Canyon and Pole Canyon. This era of the late 1960s shows a wilderness managed for recreation and communication, evidenced by the Emigration Campground in the north and Radio Towers situated atop Midnight Mtn. A labyrinth of travel ways—including a Pack Trail, Jeep Trail, and various unnamed Trail segments—connects remote water sources like Midnight Lake, Strawberry Spring, and Balsam Spring. The naming of features like Danish Flat and Relief Society Hollow suggests the cultural heritage of the surrounding settlements, while the diverse basins like Green Basin and Mahogany Basin reflect the complex topography of the mountain range.
