2024 Map of Fernwood

About this map

Fernwood serves as the primary settlement hub along the northern reaches of the Saint Maries River, where the Tyson Creek and Finn Creek drainages converge. This corner of the St Joe National Forest is defined by a dense network of timber and access roads, such as Little Carpenter Creek Rd and Tyson Creek Rd, which navigate a complex landscape of prominent summits. High points like Green Mtn, Willow Peak, and Nakarna Mtn oversee the transition from the river valley to the southern Hoodoo Mountains. Near the Latah County line, the map documents specialized recreation and resource routes including the Emerald Butte Ohv Trl and the Emerald Creek Cutoff Ohv Trl. These trails, along with features like Garnet Gulch, highlight a terrain deeply utilized for both industry and backcountry travel.
