2011 Map of Chilcoot Peak

About this map

Meadow Creek Lookout stands at the northern edge of this high-elevation terrain in Valley County, overlooking a network of drainage basins and peaks. The landscape is defined by the convergence of several major water systems, including Riordan Creek, Trapper Creek, and Bear Creek. Human activity is concentrated along the forest road system, notably Trapper Creek Rd and Nat For Dev Rd 447, which connect the tiered clearings of Lower Trapper Flat, Trapper Flat, and Upper Trapper Flat. High points such as Chilcoot Peak and Trapper Mountain provide significant landmarks for navigation within the surrounding wilderness. The presence of multiple alpine water bodies like Chilcoot Lake and Riordan Lake suggests a geography shaped by glacial activity, while the lookout at the end of Thunder Mtn Rd highlights the area's history of forest management and fire observation.
