1974 Map of Salmon NW

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Salmon sits at a critical junction of the Salmon River and the surrounding high desert terrain in this 1974 orthophotoquad. Produced in cooperation with the U.S. Forest Service, this map utilizes aerial photography to reveal the town's compact grid and its immediate relationship to the river's winding path and the encroaching canyon lands. To the west, the deep indentation of Pollard Canyon cuts into the rising mountainside, illustrating the geographic constraints that have shaped the town's development since its early days as a mining and ranching hub. The imagery provides an unfiltered view of the agricultural fields and riparian zones lining the riverbanks, offering a clear record of land use and vegetation patterns during the mid-1970s.
