Miner Montana Gardiner Corwin Springs USGS Topo Map 1983

$36

This USGS 15-minute topographic map is a 1955 edition printed in 1983, and the sheet is in very good condition, lightly handled and never folded. Straddling the Montana-Wyoming line, the quad takes in the country around Gardiner and Corwin Springs along the northern edge of Yellowstone National Park, with parts of Gallatin National Forest and the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness within its boundaries. The 80-foot contour interval reflects the steep terrain along the upper Yellowstone River corridor, the main route into the park from the north. Because the sheet was never folded, it lies flat and is well suited to framing.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Miner 15-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1947 through 1955. All known structures (houses, businesses, churches, schools, barns, cabins, etc) are also shown.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the 15-minute series for the continental United States are no longer produced or printed by the USGS and original prints are becoming increasingly difficult to find. They are a valuable historical record for an area, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
