1931 Map of Buffalo Hump

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Nez Perce National Forest dominates this topographic study, where the steep canyons of the South Fork Clearwater River and Crooked River define a landscape of early 20th-century mining and ranching. The survey highlights a rugged interior economy of isolated claims and camps, from the Mother Lode Mine and Iron Crown Mine to the remote Ransoms Cabin. Settlement patterns follow the water and the ridges, with nodes of activity at Old Golden, Orogrande, and the settlement of Humptown near the prominent Buffalo Hump summit.
