1964 Map of Nyack

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

The Middle Fork Flathead River carves a deep path through John F. Stevens Canyon, serving as a natural boundary between Glacier National Park to the northeast and the Great Bear Wilderness to the southwest. This mountainous region is defined by the logistical corridor of the Great Northern railroad and the Theodore Roosevelt Recreation Way, which follow the river's course past the small settlement of Nyack. A network of drainage systems, including Nyack Creek and Harrison Creek, feed into the main waterway from the surrounding heights of Mount Penrose and Loneman Mountain. The presence of the Nyack Ranger Station and the Loneman Lookout point to the early forest management and fire observation infrastructure essential to this heavily timbered landscape. Local industry and road development are evidenced by a Borrow Pit and Quarry situated near the riverbanks, illustrating the human footprint within this protected wilderness during the mid-1960s.
