1963 Map of Bradbury Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Salmon River waters carve through this Idaho landscape, defining the western boundary of the wide Round Valley and the adjacent Bradbury Flat. The 1963 field check reveals a network of waterways and springs, such as Hannah Slough and Bishop Spring, that supported the grazing and ranching operations indicated by the numerous fence lines across the valley floor. The terrain transitions from the low-lying flats to the higher elevations of Germer Peak and Germer Basin in the southwest corner. Transportation in this era was dominated by a sparse network of unimproved routes and a Jeep Trail, illustrating the remote nature of Custer County before modern infrastructure was fully established. Local land use is further marked by features like a Gravel Pit and a remote Well, providing a record of mid-century rural resource management.
