1990 Map of Chinook Mountain

About this map

The Frank Church - River of No Return Wilderness dominates this portion of Idaho's backcountry, where the drainage systems of Pistol Creek and North Fork Elkhorn Creek converge. The landscape is defined by its mining history and rugged access routes, with the Cougar Mine, Franklin D Mine, and Lucky Lad Mine tucked into the steep drainages. High points such as Chinook Mountain and Walkers Peak overlook a complex network of named waterways including Winchester Creek and Popgun Creek. This 1990 provisional update illustrates the intersection of industrial pursuit and conservation within the Boise National Forest. Local navigation relies on established routes like the Luger Trail and Automatic Trail, which trace the high ridges and steep valleys. The naming conventions, from Shrapnel Ridge to Gun Creek, reflect a specific cultural imprint on this protected wilderness area.
