1996 Map of Canuck Peak

About this map

The international border between Idaho, Montana, and British Columbia defines this high-altitude landscape within the Kaniksu National Forest and Kootenai National Forest. This 1996 revision shows a terrain dominated by significant peaks and ridges, including Copper Mountain, American Mountain, and Canuck Peak. The area is a nexus of water sources, with drainages such as Copper Creek and American Creek flowing from the heights. Evidence of mineral exploration appears in several remote locations, labeled as Prospect and Prospects, particularly along the southern ridges near Buckhorn Mountain. Strategic high-country passes like Canuck Pass provide the primary transit points across the Ruby Ridge and Copper Ridge, while small alpine waters like Spruce Lake and Hidden Lake are tucked into the steep slopes.
