About this map

Panther Creek bisects this mountainous landscape, carving a deep valley through the heart of the Salmon National Forest. The 1989 survey reveals a terrain defined by mineral exploration and isolation, with several prospects and an Open Pit Mine located in the southern reaches of the quadrangle. High points like Gant Mountain and Dutchmans Hump overlook a network of drainage systems, including Big Deer Creek and Birch Creek, which are accessible primarily via rugged 4wd tracks and a Pack Trail. Small level areas like Fritzer Flat and Trapper Flat offer rare breaks in the steep topography, while the western edge of the map enters the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. The presence of numerous adits and mining sites highlights the region's historical reliance on extraction within the Idaho backcountry.
