1967 Map of Thunder Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The high backcountry of the Lewis and Clark National Forest is defined by steep drainages and several prominent peaks, including Thunder Mountain and Big Horn Mountain. At the time of this 1967 field check, the landscape remained largely defined by its natural topography, though evidence of earlier human infrastructure persists in the north along Belt Creek. Here, an Old Railroad Grade follows the water, marking a former industrial corridor through the mountains. To the northwest, the Meade Guard Station stands near the confluence of Lick Creek and Logging Creek, serving as a remote outpost in this mountain terrain. The map records numerous mineral prospects scattered across the ridges, particularly near Iron Gulch and Virgin Creek, while a network of named trails like the Pack Trail provides the primary access through deep cuts such as Goblin Gulch and Urvi Gulch.
