1963 Map of Challis Creek Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Challis National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape along the boundary of Custer and Lemhi Counties. The 1963 field check records a region defined by its steep drainage systems and legacy of extraction, most notably at the Parker Mine and Parker Mill situated on the slopes of Parker Mountain. These sites represent the historical mining activity that once drove the local economy, centered around the upper reaches of Kerr Creek.
