About this map

The Deadwood Mine serves as a primary point of interest in this high-altitude landscape within the Boise National Forest. Located along the Deadwood River, the mining operations include specifically labeled tailings and a nearby prospect, indicating the industrial activity that persisted in these isolated reaches of Valley County. The geography is defined by steep drainage systems, where the East Fork and North Fork meet the main river, surrounded by peaks such as Pilgrim Mountain and Bernard Mountain.

Transitioning into protected wilderness, the northeastern portion of the map covers part of the Frank Church - River of No Return Wilderness. Recreation and resource extraction exist in close proximity, evidenced by the Deer Flat Campground near the Deadwood River and the southern Mary Jane Mine. Small alpine water bodies like Sheepherder Lake and Bernard Lake dot the high basins, connected by a network of foot trails and primitive 4wd tracks.
