1964 Map of Nyack

About this map

The Middle Fork Flathead River serves as the dividing line between two immense protected landscapes in this 1964 survey, separating Glacier National Park to the north from the Flathead National Forest to the south. The small settlement of Nyack is positioned at a critical geographic bottleneck within the John F Stevens Canyon, a vital corridor for both the Great Northern railroad and the river. This passage through the Rockies is flanked by massive peaks such as Loneman Mountain and Nyack Mountain.
