1953 Map of Deadwood Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Deadwood Reservoir dominates the central landscape of this Boise National Forest study, illustrating the mid-century water management and recreation infrastructure of Valley County. The 1950s era of mining and forest administration is visible through active sites like the Deadwood Mine near Deer Creek Pass and the Mary Blue Mine further south. These workings, alongside the Mary Jane Mine, point to the enduring interest in the region's mineral wealth. The administrative footprint of the Boise National Forest is clear, with both the Upper Deadwood Guard Station and Lower Deadwood Guard Station serving as focal points for forest management. High peaks such as Monumental Peak and Whitehawk Mountain frame the drainage basins, while specialized paths like the Monumental Trail and Sheepherder Trail suggest a landscape used for both transit and livestock, well before later developments altered these traditional mountain routes.
