1970 Map of Boyle Mountain

About this map

Sawtooth National Forest encompasses the high mountain terrain of Blaine County as documented in this 1970 field check. The landscape is defined by significant elevations such as Bear Peak and Boyle Mountain, where the drainage patterns of Warm Springs Creek and Baker Creek create a complex network of gulches and canyons. The presence of several Prospects near Boyle Canyon indicates the area's history of mineral exploration, a common thread in Idaho's mountain development. Outdoor recreation and land management are visible through the East Fork Baker Creek Campground and an extensive system of wilderness paths, including the Alden Gulch Trail, Pack Trail, and Warfield Trail. This survey captures the remote character of the region before modern digital mapping, preserving the locations of specific backcountry landmarks like Castle Rock BM 6637 and Fox Peak.
