1988 Map of Bly
USGS Topo · Published 1988About this map
Bly serves as the central hub of this 1980s landscape, positioned at the confluence of the South Fork Sprague River and Fishhole Creek. The geography reveals a transition from the agricultural plains of the Sprague River valley to the timbered heights of the Fremont National Forest. Evidence of the region's timber-driven economy is prominent, from the Ivory Pine Mill (Site) to the extensive Logging Railroad network and an Old Railroad Grade winding through the southern hills. Notable terrain features like the Bly Ridge and the volcanic-named Devils Garden frame the settlement, while historical sites like the Garner (Site) suggest earlier points of habitation along the North Fork Sprague River. Significant water management is visible via Leonard Slough and various reservoirs, including Hyde Reservoir and Obenchain Reservoir.
