1955 Map of Miner

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Yellowstone River cuts a deep path through Yankee Jim Canyon, serving as the primary corridor for both the Northern Pacific railroad and early mountain settlements in the mid-1950s. This survey captures the high-altitude landscape where Gallatin National Forest meets the northern boundary of Yellowstone National Park. Evidence of local community life is preserved in the locations of the Miner Sch and Cinnabar Sch, while the mining and ranching history of the region is anchored by Aldridge and the OTO Ranch. Geologic landmarks such as the Devils Slide and the towering Electric Peak dominate the southern portion of the sheet. The map also identifies backcountry infrastructure like the Sportsman Patrol Cabin, providing a detailed look at the infrastructure required to manage these vast public lands before modern expansion.
