1968 Map of Frye Point

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Craig Mountain dominates this interior portion of Nez Perce County, where the high ridge lines of Wapshilla Ridge and the peak at Frye Point overlook a complex network of canyons and drainages. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from high-elevation clearings like Larabee Meadows and Benton Meadows to the deeply incised paths of Eagle Creek and the South Fork Captain John Creek. In this late 1960s survey, human presence is sparse and primarily limited to specific named locations like Zaza and Morris, which appear as isolated points connected by an extensive network of Jeep Trails. The abundance of named springs, such as Roberts Spring, and seasonal watercourses like China Gulch and Cave Creek, suggests a landscape used for seasonal grazing or resource extraction rather than dense permanent settlement.
