1968 Map of Rising Sun

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Saint Mary Lake serves as the central anchor of this 1968 photogrammetric survey, its turquoise waters punctuated by Wild Goose Island and flanked by massive peaks. The Going-to-the-Sun Road follows the northern shoreline, providing access to landmarks like Rising Sun and Sunrift Gorge. The mapping reveals a landscape shaped by high-altitude hydrology, with numerous cascades such as Baring Falls, Virginia Falls, and Rose Falls draining the surrounding basins.
