1967 Map of Rock Creek Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Deer Lodge National Forest dominates this topographic study, where the high mountain terrain of Powell Co. reveals a complex network of early water management and high-altitude landmarks. The central feature, Rock Creek Lake, is fed by Rock Creek Falls and surrounded by a rugged landscape defined by Deer Lodge Ridge and Emery Ridge. Notable for those tracing historical land use are the intricate irrigation and transport lines, including the Old China Ditch, Pauly Ditch, and the Kohrs and Bielenberg Jeep Trail. This 1960s survey preserves the character of the region's wilderness before later shifts in forest management, noting specific landmarks like The Crater and the alpine meadows of South America Park. Small-scale resource extraction is evidenced by a solitary Mine located near Pikes Peak, illustrating the isolated prospecting common to this portion of the Montana Rockies.
