1970 Map of Modesto

About this map

Morgan-Monroe State Forest dominates the center of this terrain, where the rugged ridges of Washington and Beanblossom townships meet. The map documents a landscape transitioning from the agricultural flats of the White River valley in the north to the heavily wooded uplands. Along the northern edge, the Conrail line and the Paragon Bridge facilitate transport across the river, while the interior is marked by a network of rural roads connecting scattered spiritual and educational centers like New Salem Ch and the Brown Sch.
