1995 Map of Big Rock Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

The Selway Bitterroot Wilderness dominates this portion of the Nez Perce National Forest, a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and significant ridge systems. High peaks like Big Rock Mountain and Frisco Peak rise above deep drainages, including the course of Rhoda Creek and Lizard Creek. The map records specific back-country resources such as Silver Hot Springs along the West Fork and the remote Bear Wallow Lookout on the southern edge of the quadrangle. Steep terrain transitions from Blacktail Ridge in the northwest to Meeker Ridge and Sixtytwo Ridge in the southeast, reflecting the complex topography of this roadless area. While devoid of permanent settlements, the presence of Parsons Spring and High Spring suggests the critical importance of water sources for those navigating these high-elevation forest lands in the mid-1990s.
