1998 Map of Dennis Mountain

About this map

The Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness dominates this 1990s terrain, marking a vast protected landscape where the Nez Perce National Forest and Bitterroot National Forest meet. The map reveals a complex network of high-elevation drainages and prominent peaks, including Dennis Mountain and Harrington Mountain. A notable transition occurs along the Salmon Wild and Scenic River, where the steep topography of Dennis Ridge and Black Ridge falls toward the river corridor. Evidence of backcountry navigation is sparse but specific, with the Campsite near Saddle Creek and established crossings like Black Creek Saddle and Harrington Saddle providing essential orientation points for those tracing the historical trails and ranger district boundaries of central Idaho.
