1968 Map of Mount Carter

About this map

The Continental Divide carves a path through the Livingstone Range in this 1968 field-checked record of the high-altitude landscape where Glacier National Park meets Waterton Lakes National Park. This survey documents a complex system of ice and water, including the Boulder Glacier, Weasel Collar Glacier, and the Carter Glaciers flanking Mount Carter. The map captures the international boundary as it runs between the United States and Canada, specifically where Montana meets British Columbia and Alberta. Human presence is represented only by a network of primitive corridors, including the Trail through Boulder Pass and the notable Hole-in-the-Wall campsite, illustrating the remote character of the northern Rockies before modern infrastructure altered backcountry access. Natural landmarks such as The Guardhouse, The Sentinel, and the sheer drops of Thunderbird Falls define this high-relief terrain.
