1958 Map of Vipond Park

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Hecla Mines and the historic settlement of Glendale anchor this high-altitude survey of the Pioneer Mountains during the late 1950s. The map illustrates a complex legacy of hard-rock extraction, with dozens of workings like the Old Faithful Mine, Queen of the Hills Mine, and Sappington Mine dotting the drainages of Vipond Creek and Trapper Creek. The transition from industrial mining to forestry and ranching is evident in the presence of the Rock Creek Guard Sta and private holdings such as Siria Ranch and Spritzer Ranch. An Old Railroad Grade in the northwest corner traces an earlier era of transportation, while the interior is navigated by a network of primitive routes including the Pack Trail and Jeep Trail. High alpine basins are characterized by numerous small water bodies such as Tahepia Lake and Lake Agnes, situated beneath prominent summits like Gray Jockey Peak and Browns Peak.
