1958 Map of Our Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Rocky Mountain and Old Baldy dominate the high-altitude terrain of the Lewis and Clark National Forest in this late 1950s survey. The landscape is defined by the sharp divides between the Teton River and Deep Creek watersheds, where primary access was maintained through established mountain crossings like Headquarters Pass and Route Creek Pass. Evidence of high-country management is visible at Beartop Lookout, situated on a prominent peak overlooking the drainage systems of Dryden Creek and Lynx Creek. The hydrology is complex, with high-elevation water bodies like Our Lake feeding into narrow canyons and gulches. The prominence of a Pack Trail network instead of roads highlights the non-motorized, backcountry nature of this region during the post-war era, preserving the topographical detail of landmarks such as Lonesome Ridge and Green Gulch.
