2020 Map of Carey Dome

About this map

Carey Dome stands as a prominent lookout over a landscape defined by the deep canyons of the Salmon River, specifically the protected corridor of the Salmon Wild and Scenic River. This 2020 map documents the transition between the Nez Perce National Forest to the north and the Payette National Forest to the south. The river corridor is marked by technical water features including Vinegar Creek Rapids and Chittam Rapids, alongside riverside locations like Tom Bar. Transportation in this remote territory relies on a network of forest development roads, including Natl Forest Develop Road 103 Rd and the Wind River Pack Bridge, which provides essential river access. Local landmarks such as Peterson Flat, Studebaker Saddle, and Warnock Ridge illustrate the high-relief topography of Idaho County.
