1966 Map of Burnt Strip Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Selway River carves through the heart of the Bitterroot Range in this mid-1960s study of Idaho's high backcountry. This area is defined by the high-elevation topography of Indian Ridge and the prominent peaks of Burnt Strip Mtn and Green Mtn. Human presence is minimal, centered primarily on administrative and recreational outposts like the Paradise Guard Sta. and the nearby Paradise Campground. The map documents a primitive transportation network consisting almost entirely of a Pack Trail system, including the significant historical corridor of the Old Nez Perce Trail. These routes follow the natural drainage patterns of White Cap Creek, Snake Creek, and Jack Creek, illustrating the early Forest Service infrastructure within the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness and Bitterroot National Forest.
