1954 Map of Mount Tyndall

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Bassick Mine and the mining settlements of Rosita and Querida anchor the southern portion of this mid-century Custer County survey. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the Wet Mountains, featuring prominent landmarks like Mount Tyndall, Mt Herring, and Bear Peak. Agricultural and ranching life is visible through the scattered locations of the Armstrong Ranch, Jones Ranch, and Kness Ranch. The presence of the Dry Lake Sch (Aband) near Dry Lake suggests a shift in the local population and educational geography by the early 1950s. Water drainage patterns are dictated by numerous named gulches, including Mule Gulch, Boneyard Gulch, and Tyndall Gulch, which carve through the Rosita Hills and the slopes of Excelsior Ridge.
