1956 Map of Doublespring

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Pahsimeroi Mountains dominate this mid-century survey of the high-altitude divide between Custer and Lemhi counties. Reaching heights at Grouse Creek Mtn and McGowan, the range is defined by a series of steep drainages including Christian Gulch and Mulkey Gulch. The Challis National Forest boundary encloses much of this high country, which gives way to the broad valley of the Big Pahsimeroi River to the east. Human presence is concentrated around the Doublespring Ranch and scattered springs, with Jeep Trails providing the primary access through the basins and canyons. The landscape is dotted with descriptive local landmarks such as Sheep Pen Basin, Wino Basin, and Dead Cat Canyon, reflecting a history of livestock ranching and exploration in this high-desert mountain environment.
