1967 Map of Amber Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Amber Lakes and the surrounding high-elevation basins of the Sawtooth National Forest dominate this 1960s topographic survey. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the West Fork, North Fork, and East Fork Big Wood Rivers, where numerous pack trails and jeep tracks follow steep drainage lines like Headquarters Canyon and Kendall Gulch. This period of forest management is reflected in the established recreation sites clustered along the lower river valleys, including Wood River Campground and the higher-elevation Sawtooth Camp. Remote locations like Boulder Basin and the topographic prominence of Phantom Hill provide context for the era's backcountry access, while the presence of a Gaging Station and various springs across Oregon Gulch highlight the importance of water resource monitoring in this high Idaho terrain.
