1970 Map of Buttercup Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Sawtooth National Forest dominates this 1970 study of the high-elevation drainage systems between the Smoky Mountains and the surrounding Idaho peaks. Mining history is a central theme of this landscape, evidenced by the presence of the Buttercup Mine and various unnamed mines and prospects scattered near the Buttercup Creek headwaters. The map records a transition point in the local economy, where early extractive efforts are marked by Ruins and established claim sites near the Blaine and Camas county lines.
