1968 Map of Monida

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The high-altitude borderlands between Montana and Idaho are defined here by the Continental Divide and the critical transportation corridor of Monida Pass. The small settlement of Monida serves as a focal point along the Union Pacific rail line, which snakes through the mountain terrain alongside the interstate highway. To the north, the wide Centennial Valley opens up, dominated by the waters of the Lima Reservoir. This survey captures a landscape of intense hydrography and topography, where Beaver Creek and its many tributaries, including Modoc Creek and Berry Creek, drain the southern slopes within the Targhee National Forest. Local landmarks like the Airway Beacon and Pinetop Hill mark the high ground near the state boundary, illustrating the area's role in both aviation navigation and early transcontinental travel routes through the Northern Rockies.
