2020 Map of Cathedral Peak

About this map

Coeur d'Alene National Forest dominates this mountain landscape, defined by the drainage systems of the N Fork Coeur d'Alene River and its numerous tributaries. High points like Cathedral Peak and Amethyst Peak provide dramatic relief above a network of waterways including Tepee Creek and Cataract Creek. The map documents a territory managed for both wilderness and resource access, with the Coeur d'Alene River Nrt and Independence Creek Nrt offering recreational routes through the timber. Significant peaks such as Windfall Peak and Beaver Peak serve as primary landmarks for navigation within Shoshone County. The presence of Big Meadows and various forest roads, including Spruce Ridge Rd and Independence Creek Rd, indicates the ongoing logistical balance between conservation and forest management in this part of Idaho.
