1958 Map of Rich Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Rich Mountain ridge line dominates the high country of the Ouachita National Forest during the late 1950s, serving as a corridor for both the Kansas City Southern railroad and the scenic Skyline Drive. This area, straddling the border of Polk and Scott counties, reveals the infrastructure of forest management and early tourism. The Rich Mountain Lookout Tower stands atop the peak, while Wilhelmina State Park provides a dedicated recreational area near the western edge of the quadrangle. In the valleys below, the settlement of Eagleton sits near the Eagle Gap Ranger Sta, reflecting a landscape defined by forestry and transportation.
