About this map

Bovill serves as a central hub for the logging and resource extraction industry within the St Joe National Forest during the mid-1990s. The landscape is defined by the winding Potlatch River and its tributaries, such as Hog Meadow Creek and Little Boulder Creek, which carve through a series of significant openings including Moose Meadows and Shea Meadows. Industrial markers are scattered throughout the forest, with several Clay Pits, Gravel Pits, and areas of Tailings indicating the area's geological utility.

Transportation infrastructure reflects a transition from rail to road, evidenced by the Burlington Northern line passing through Helmer and the presence of an Old RR Grade following the East Fork Potlatch River. The town of Bovill is well-established with its own Cemetery, Po, and a Sewage Lagoon, while the Moose Creek Reservoir to the north provides a managed water feature amidst the dense timberland and meadows like Bronson Meadow.
