1966 Map of Tincup Mtn

About this map

Old Baldy Peak and Bald Mountain dominate the northern terrain of this 1966 survey, which documents a landscape defined by seasonal industry and traditional mountain travel within the Caribou National Forest. The presence of the Squaw Creek Sawmill (Site) near Squaw Creek points to historical timber extraction in the region, while the extensive network of pack routes, including the Bald Mountain Pack Trail and Hubler Trail, indicates how these peaks were accessed before modern road development. The map covers the boundary between Bonneville and Caribou counties, following a complex drainage system where Jackknife Creek and Tincup Creek carve through the high elevations of Tincup Mtn and Black Mountain. Local history researchers can trace family-named features like Luthi Canyon, Haderlie Creek, and Marshall Canyon, which mark the lower reaches of the watershed.
