1963 Map of Bowery Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The East Fork Salmon River carves a deep path through the high country of Custer County, Idaho, during the early 1960s. This survey captures a rugged landscape where the river is the primary navigational artery, flanked by a series of significant tributaries including Big Boulder Creek and Little Boulder Creek in the north, and Germania Creek and Bowery Creek further south. The presence of a remote Landing Strip near the river's edge, situated between the Challis National Forest and the Sawtooth National Forest, highlights the area's isolation and its reliance on small aircraft for access. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations such as Red Ridge and intricate drainages like Mountain Meadow Creek and Long Tom Creek, reflecting a wilderness defined by forestry and high-altitude watershed management.
