1966 Map of Fog Mountain

About this map

The Selway River and Middle Fork Clearwater River converge within a landscape of steep drainages and mountain peaks as they appeared during the 1960s and 1980s. This survey, located within the Nez Perce National Forest and the Nez Perce and Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, documents a wilderness infrastructure defined by a complex network of Pack Trails. Notable high points like Fog Mountain, Otter Butte, and Ballinger Point overlook a territory dissected by numerous named drainages including Maiden Creek, Coon Creek, and Ballinger Creek. The map provides specific locations for Moose Meadows and the alpine Highline Lakes along Highline Ridge, offering a clear view of the natural corridors used for travel and forest management before modern revisions.
