1954 Map of Mount Tyndall

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The high-altitude landscape of Custer County in the early 1950s is defined here by its legacy of silver mining and ranching. Evidence of the region’s late 19th-century mining boom remains at Querida and Rosita, where the terrain is punctuated by historic workings like the Bassick Hill Mine. The rugged topography of the Rosita Hills and Mount Tyndall is crisscrossed by numerous gulches, such as Dead Mule Gulch and Boneyard Gulch, reflecting the complex drainage patterns required for early industrial and agricultural operations.
