1972 Map of Edaho Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Sawtooth Wilderness Area dominates the high-altitude landscape of this 1970s survey, where the administrative boundary between Boise County and Elmore County follows the prominent ridgelines. This territory is defined by the headwaters of major Idaho drainage systems, including the South Fork Payette River and the Boise River. The map highlights a network of historical transport routes, particularly the Pack Trail and Jeep Trail systems that provide access to remote peaks like Edaho Mtn and Picket Mtn. A single prospect near Picket Mtn and family-named landmarks like Taylor Spring suggest the era's small-scale mineral exploration and seasonal mountain usage. The topographic detail captures the steep drainage basins of McPherson Creek and McLeod Creek, documenting the primitive road and trail infrastructure that existed before modern recreational management was fully established in this part of the Boise National Forest.
