2011 Map of Black Pyramid Mountain

About this map

Richel Lodge serves as the primary outpost on this high-altitude landscape, situated where Lake Fork Rd meets the rushing waters of Rock Creek. This 2011 survey reveals an environment shaped by recreation and resource extraction, with multiple sites such as Parkside Campground and Limber Pine Campground lining the canyon floor. High above the water, the Hellroaring Plateau and Silver Run Plateau dominate the skyline, punctuated by isolated alpine features like Snowbank Lake, Hairpin Lake, and Cresent Lake. Traces of industry remain visible through the Edsel Mine near Tolman Point and the Gallon Jug Mine further south. The map documents a complex drainage network where Hellroaring Creek and Silver Falls Creek descend from the heights to join the main stem of the Rock Creek valley.
