1904 Map of Santanoni

USGS Topo · Published 1940

About this map

Mac Intyre Ironworks and the Tahawus Club stand as rare human outposts in this dense mountain landscape surveyed at the turn of the twentieth century. The map illustrates a high-altitude wilderness defined by the massive Mac Intyre Mountains, Seward Mountains, and the Santanoni Mountain range. Travel through this vertical terrain is marked by the Government Trail and the dramatic Indian Pass. Water is a constant presence, from the remote Henderson Lake and Harkness Lake to the headwaters of the Chubb River and Cold River. The inclusion of various logging or sporting camps, such as Camp Santanoni and Big Camp, suggests a transitional period where industrial extraction and early wilderness recreation coexisted in the high peaks. The topography reveals the isolation of peaks like Santanoni Peak and Mt. Adams before modern development reached the interior.
