2017 Map of Bear Mountain

About this map

The Lochsa River winds through the northern portion of this Idaho County landscape, serving as the primary drainage for a network of steep creeks within the Clearwater National Forest. The geography is defined by prominent peaks including Bear Mtn and Freezeout Mtn, which overlook the complex hydrology of the Bitterroot Range. Notable thermal features like Colgate Warm Springs are located along the river corridor, while high-elevation points such as Indian Postoffice suggest historical navigation routes through the dense forest. The map detail highlights the numerous tributaries that feed the main river, including Kinnikinnick Cr, Bear Mountain Cr, and Postoffice Cr, providing a clear view of the wilderness topography as it appeared in the early 21st century.
