1960 Map of Danskin Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Danskin Peak stands as the dominant topographical feature in this section of the Boise National Forest, overlooking a complex network of canyons and high flats in Elmore County. The South Fork Boise River winds through the central portion of the landscape, crossed by the Danskin Bridge and flanked by landmarks like Steamboat Rock and Cathedral Rocks. Human activity in the early 1960s is evidenced by the remote Long Tom Ranch and forestry outposts such as the Willow Creek Guard Station and Danskin Guard Sta. The map reveals a land utilized for both management and recreation, featuring the Cow Creek Forest Camp and an Airstrip near the northern boundary. Cattle ranching and transit history are suggested by named locales like Little Sage Hen Flat and Tollgate Hill, while the Lava Trail provides a glimpse into the primitive transportation routes used by locals and foresters alike.
