About this map

Caribou Mountain dominates this mid-1960s survey of the high country along the border of Bonneville Co and Caribou Co. The landscape is a network of water and early industry, featuring remote operations like the Monte Cristo Mine and Evergreen Mine tucked into the steep drainages of City Creek and Jackknife Creek. While the region is primarily defined by the Caribou National Forest, evidence of earlier settlement remains at Caribou City (Site) and the Gray Cem near the southern edge. The terrain is navigated by a complex system of primitive routes, labeled as either Jeep Trail or Pack Trail, reflecting the difficult access to high-elevation landmarks like Jackknife Basin and Morgan Meadow. This map provides a detailed look at the infrastructure of the Idaho mineral and timber lands before modern development altered these remote drainages.
