1963 Map of Florence

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Florence Basin and the surrounding high country of the Nez Perce National Forest define this 1963 survey. The landscape is marked by the legacy of the region's mining history, notably around the settlement of Florence, where a Cem and the Waverly Mine are situated near Baboon Gulch. The complex drainage system includes Little Slate Creek and Little French Creek, which carve through the steep topography of Telephone Ridge. Evidence of land use is visible in the isolated Bungalow Cow Camp and several named prospects scattered across the drainage basins. The map illustrates a transitional period where old mining claims and trail networks remained the primary indicators of human presence in this high-elevation wilderness before more modern infrastructure arrived.
