1959 Map of Polaris

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Pioneer Mountains and the Big Hole Divide define the high-elevation landscape of this 1959 survey, where the extraction of mineral wealth meets early recreational tourism. The central valley of Grasshopper Creek serves as the primary artery for local life, anchoring the settlement of Polaris and its associated Polaris Sch. This area is characterized by a mix of active and historic industry, including the Old Elkhorn Mine, Magna Mine, and a Tungsten Mill.
