1956 Map of Challis
USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Salmon River carves a deep path through Custer County, Idaho, in this mid-century survey, flanked by the Pahsimeroi Mountains and the Salmon River Mountains. The town of Challis sits at the foot of these ranges, serving as a hub near the Challis Airfield and the irrigation network of Garden Creek. Geothermal activity is a notable characteristic of the landscape, marked by the Beardsley Hot Springs south of town and a Hot Spring further north in Cronks Canyon.
