1977 Map of Boston Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Nez Perce National Forest encompasses this high-elevation Idaho landscape, where the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness meets the upper drainage of Meadow Creek. The terrain is defined by prominent peaks like Boston Mountain and Soda Creek Point, separated by high basins such as Mountain Meadows. Transportation throughout the area relies on a network of historical routes, including the Nez Perce Trail, several Pack Trails, and unimproved roads. A 1987 revision reveals the development of primitive infrastructure for backcountry navigation, including the 14 Mile Tree Campsite and Granite Spring Campground. The presence of Boston Mtn Lake and numerous spring-fed tributaries like Salt Creek and Mallard Creek illustrate a complex alpine watershed largely untouched by permanent settlement.
