1965 Map of Mount Emmons

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Mount Emmons dominates this high-altitude landscape in the Ashley National Forest, rising above a complex network of alpine glacial basins. The 1965 survey reveals a primitive wilderness defined by the Timothy Lakes cluster to the west and the Chain Lakes to the east, connected by a network of pack trails and jeep trails. These trails provide the only access to remote water bodies like Lake Atwood and the smaller B-29 Lake. The terrain transitions from the high peaks down into Krebs Basin and toward Jackson Park, with numerous tributaries including Swift Creek, Owl Creek, and Crow Creek draining the snow-melt. This map captures the area as it was managed for backcountry recreation and forest preservation in the mid-1960s, documenting the specific drainage patterns and high-country passes such as Roberts Pass before more modern land-use changes.
