Badlands Beady Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Look what I found: http://www.bigmapblog.com. It's a compilation of all kinds of old maps. One I'm looking at right now is "W.J. Keeler's map of the Union Pacific Railroad and it's Eastern Connections, 1867." Looks like this would be a great resource for anyone doing research or just browsing.

Adirondack Jack, SASS #53440 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I still use my USGS topo maps. The survey was done in 1935. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
