1985 Map of Black Pine Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Black Pine Mountains dominate this 1980s topographic landscape along the border of Cassia and Oneida Counties. This high-altitude terrain within the Sawtooth National Forest is characterized by a series of prominent summits, including Black Pine Peak and War Eagle Peak, which overlook a network of drainage systems like Black Pine Canyon and Kelsaw Canyon. The presence of several Prospect labels and a Mine Shaft in Mineral Gulch suggests a history of mineral exploration in the limestone and quartzite formations. Water sources are vital features in this arid environment, marked by numerous named springs such as Silver Hills Spring, Lost Tunnel Spring, and Pollard Spring. To the southeast, the terrain descends into the Burnt Basin and the wide expanse of the Curlew Valley, where the remains of an Abandoned Ditch indicate early efforts to manage water for grazing or local industry.
