2024 Map of Bertha Hill

About this map

St Joe National Forest and Clearwater National Forest converge in this high-elevation Idaho landscape, where the North Fork Clearwater River carves through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridgelines, including Boehls Butte, Benton Butte, and the namesake Bertha Hill. This area is a significant drainage basin for numerous mountain streams such as Larkins Creek and Benton Creek. The map documents a network of remote access routes used for forest management and fire lookout access, most notably Telephone Creek Rd and Benton Butte Rd. Strategic high points are marked by distinctive features like Cougar Rock and several key mountain passes, including Lovell Saddle, Black Bear Saddle, and Township Saddle.
