1963 Map of Bayhorse

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Silver and lead mining history dominates this 1963 survey of the Salmon River canyon, where the settlement of Bayhorse sits deep within the gulches of the Challis National Forest. The landscape is heavily marked by the industrial footprint of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, featuring the Coke Ovens and numerous high-altitude workings like the Ramshorn Mine, Skylark Mine, and Pacific Mine. These sites are linked by a network of steep trails and jeep roads traversing peaks such as Ramshorn Mtn and Keystone Mtn. To the east, the Salmon River cuts through the terrain near Bayhorse Well, while the local Cem and Juliette Basin provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing the families who worked these rugged claims.
