1958 Map of Nimrod

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Middle Fork Flathead River carves through the center of this terrain, serving as a natural boundary between Glacier National Park to the north and the Flathead National Forest to the south. The small settlement at Nimrod and the nearby Java Ranger Station represent the sparse human footprint in this wilderness during the mid-1950s. Transportation through the mountains is dominated by the Great Northern railroad line, which follows the river's course through John Stevens Canyon, and the Theodore Roosevelt Pass. High-altitude features like Spruce Lookout and Java Mountain overlook a network of pack trails that connect drainages such as Sheep Creek and Edna Creek. The presence of a Gaging Sta and Cable Crossing near Spruce Park highlights the ongoing hydrological monitoring of these critical mountain waters.
