2011 Map of Beaver Jack Mountain

About this map

The Selway River cuts through this high mountain corridor, serving as the central drainage for a series of drainages including Test Creek, Cactus Creek, and Hells Half Acre Creek. The landscape is defined by its topographic extremes, anchored by Beaver Jack Mountain and the distinctive promontory of Old Warriors Face. Human presence is concentrated along the Magruder Corridor Rd, which provides access to the Deep Creek Campground and the remote settlement area at Upper Crossing. This region is shaped by steep drainages like Langdon Gulch and Grass Gulch, reflecting a wilderness character where travel is largely dictated by the river valley and the few established mountain roads. The naming of features like Horsejaw Mountain and Gold Pan Creek hints at the historic intersection of pack travel and early resource exploration in this section of Idaho County.
