1964 Map of East Basin Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Salmon River cuts through the southern reaches of this mountain landscape in Challis National Forest, serving as a primary corridor for travel and recreation in the mid-1960s. Along the river's winding path, several public sites including Riverside Campground, Mormon Bend Campground, and Basin Creek Campground line the valley floor. High above the river, the terrain is defined by steep ridges and drainages like East Basin Creek and Deadwood Creek. Evidence of local industry is sparse but present, marked by a single Mine accessed by a Jeep Trail in the central highlands. Higher elevations features include the peak of McGowan and the remote East Basin Lake, while the northeastern corner shows the confluence of West Fork Yankee Fork and West Fork Campground.
