2017 Map of Elk Butte

About this map

Elk Butte dominates the northwestern landscape of this Clearwater County region, standing as a prominent high point in a terrain defined by steep ridges and an intricate drainage network. This area, documented in the early 21st century, exhibits a complex system of waterways including the Middle Fork Robinson Cr and Breakfast Cr that carve through the timbered uplands. The distribution of forestry access routes like Burma Rd and Aquarius Rd suggests a landscape shaped by active resource management and recreational access. Distinctive landforms such as Sourdough Ridge and Green Mtn provide clear orientation points for those studying the topography of the northern Idaho interior. The map also traces smaller tributaries like Bark Camp Cr and Elmberry Cr, which feed into larger drainages within the Clearwater River system.
