1966 Map of Fish Lake

About this map

Fish Lake Airstrip serves as a remote hub within the high-elevation landscape of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness during the mid-1960s. This survey illustrates a primitive transportation network consisting entirely of a pack trail system that connects isolated features such as Tribulation Saddle and Boulder Pass. The topography is defined by the transition between the Clearwater National Forest and the Nez Perce National Forest, where steep drainage basins like those of Wounded Doe Creek and Rhoda Creek dominate the terrain. Significant water bodies and alpine meadows, including Sponge Lake, California Lake, and Sponge Meadows, provide clear landmarks for navigation through the mountainous interior. The absence of modernized roads highlights the area's preserved status as a wilderness corridor defined by ridges and peaks like Sponge Mtn and Eagle Mtn.
