1915 Map of Crow Creek

About this map

Caribou National Forest dominates this high-altitude border region between Idaho and Wyoming as surveyed just before World War I. The landscape is defined by the Webster Range and the Preuss Range, where resource extraction and ranching established the early footprint of settlement. Evidence of early industry is found at the Old Salt Works near Crow Creek, while the presence of the Ranger Station and the Halfway House indicates a managed wilderness and established travel routes.
