1957 Map of Mineral

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Union Pacific railroad corridor follows the winding course of the Snake River along the border of Baker and Washington counties, marking a landscape defined by high-elevation mining and timber. In this late 1950s survey, the small settlements of Mineral and Home appear as central points for local activity, surrounded by several family and industrial operations including the Mineral Mine, Mortimer Mine, and Connor Creek Mine. A private Cable Ferry (Pvt) provides a crossing point near the railroad, serving as a critical link before the anticipated changes of the Brownlee Dam project.
