1965 Map of Canuck Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Canuck Peak and the surrounding high country of the Kaniksu National Forest and Kootenai National Forest define this borderland landscape in the mid-1960s. The survey illustrates a region shaped by high-elevation topography and early resource exploration, marked by scattered prospects and a Borrow Pit. A network of specialized transport routes, including the Copper Road, Copper Connection Road, and various Pack Trails, provides a record of how this remote terrain was navigated before modern infrastructure. This map is particularly notable for capturing the precise intersection of the Canada-United States boundary with the state lines of Idaho and Montana, showcasing how international and state borders traverse peaks like American Mtn and waterways such as American Creek. High alpine basins are dotted with small water bodies including Copper Lake and Spruce Lake, which sit tucked beneath ridges like Ruby Ridge.
