This charming pamphlet contains hand drawn maps and tourist highlights of places of interest. Likely made and distributed in the 30's. Cartographer is Joe S. Swan, J. S. (Northern Region, Missoula, Montana) Swan spent the years 1930 to 1934 as a student at the University of Montana in Missoula before starting his cartographic career with the Forest Service. Active in the late 1930s on administrative and topographic maps, he is also credited with preparing the 1954 forest visitors map of the Jefferson Division, Lewis & Clark National Forest. Swan is listed as being a draftsman for the Forest Service according to the 1938 edition of PolkÕs Missoula city directory. Missing from directories for the war years, Swan reappeared in the 1948 edition of the Missoula city directory as an engineering aide with the Forest Service. He was part of the Northern RegionÕs Engineering Division until his retirement in 1973.
