1967 Map of Paris

About this map

Paris and Bloomington sit at the western edge of the Bear Lake Valley in this late-1960s survey. The landscape transitions sharply from the agricultural flats along the Bear Lake shoreline to the steep drainages of the Cache National Forest. Resource extraction and infrastructure define the canyons, where the Powerplant in Paris Canyon and various mines like the Boulder Mine indicate a history of local industry. Educational landmarks such as Emerson Sch and the Bear Lake Jr HS are centered in the village of Paris, the local seat of commerce.
