1961 Map of Ahsahka

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Cavendish and Teakean anchor a landscape defined by the convergence of the North Fork and the South Fork of the Clearwater River in north-central Idaho. This 1961 field-checked map illustrates a rural economy reliant on the timber and livestock potential of the surrounding ridges, including Tamarack Ridge and Potlatch Ridge. Evidence of early community infrastructure is preserved through labels for the Teakean-Cavendish School and the United Brethren Camp, alongside various gravel pits and a Quarry indicating local resource extraction. The map also delineates the northern boundary of the Nez Perce Indian Reservation, reflecting the complex historical land divisions of the region. Near the river's bend, the Lewis Clark Canoe Camp State Park and the Beaver Dam Recreation Area highlight the early recognition of this river corridor's historical and recreational significance.
