1969 Map of Box Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Payette National Forest dominates this high-elevation terrain in Valley County, where a complex network of glacial cirques and alpine basins defines the landscape. The survey captures a primitive wilderness state, marked primarily by a system of pack trails that connect a dense concentration of mountain lakes. Water drains through multiple directions via Twentymile Creek and the headwaters of Lick Creek, which flows southeast from its namesake Lick Creek Summit. High points like South Loon Mtn and Beaverdam Peak overlook isolated water bodies including Box Lake, Pearl Lake, and the remote Cly Lakes. The prevalence of benchmarked elevations, such as BM 5908 and BM 6615, indicates the precise mapping required for this steep backcountry before modern road development reached these higher basins.
