1936 Map of Boehls Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Bitterroot Mountains define this high-country landscape, where the St Joe National Forest meets the Clearwater National Forest along the Shoshone and Clearwater county lines. Surveyed in 1936, the map documents a wilderness infrastructure built on fire suppression and foot travel, characterized by a high density of remote watch stations including the Boehls Butte Lookout, Stocking Meadow Lookout, and Armstrong Lookout. These points of human activity are connected by routes like the Freezeout Trail, which navigates the steep drainages of the Little North Fork Clearwater River. The presence of several backcountry shelters, such as Mix Cabin, Finns Cabin, and Larson Cabin, suggests a localized economy of forest management and seasonal trapping. Landmarks like Duncecap Rock, Blackdome Peak, and Bertha Hill provide fixed navigation points across the heavily timbered terrain of the Boehls Butte region.
