1963 Map of Black Tip

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Upper Payette Lake and its northern tributaries anchor this high-elevation Idaho landscape, which was photo-inspected in 1979 to confirm the topography mapped in the early 1960s. The area is defined by the sharp divide of Center Ridge and the volcanic namesake of Lava Ridge, falling within the protected bounds of the Payette National Forest. This survey documents the remote headwaters of the North Fork Payette River and its interaction with the Idaho County and Valley County line. Alpine features such as Black Tip and Bruin Mtn overlook a series of glacial basins containing Kenneth Lake, Scribner Lake, and the French Creek Lakes. Historical access is indicated by the Upper Payette Campground and the Fisher Creek Saddle, marking the movement of forest travelers through the drainage networks of Little French Creek and Deep Creek.
