1988 Map of Big Lookout Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Big Lookout Mountain dominates the northern reaches of this Baker County landscape, casting a shadow over a complex network of drainages and early mining prospects. In the late 1980s, the terrain south of the peak reveals a history of extraction, particularly concentrated along Gold Gulch and the slopes of the Hogback. The small settlement of Weatherby sits in the southwestern corner near the Burnt River, while family-named sites like Nelson Place suggest a pattern of isolated mountain habitation. Numerous mines, mineshafts, and prospects are peppered throughout the southern gulches, including Raster Gulch and Drindarry Gulch, indicating a landscape heavily scrutinized for mineral wealth. The drainage systems of Swayze Creek and Jordan Creek carve through the high country, providing essential water sources in this elevated environment.
