2013 Map of Bowery Peak

About this map

Bowery Peak and Sheep Mtn dominate the high-altitude topography of this central Idaho interior, where the boundaries of the Challis National Forest and Sawtooth National Forest converge. This 2013 survey provides a detailed look at the drainage systems of the Salmon River mountains, including the headwaters of Pine Cr, Taylor Cr, and Herd Cr. The landscape is defined by its dramatic elevation changes and a series of rugged canyons and gulches, such as Middle Canyon and Frisch Gulch. A notable piece of back-country infrastructure, the Sheep Bridge, appears near the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The map also delineates several land survey sections, identified as PB 37 through PB 45, which mark specific parcels within these vast federally managed forest lands.
