About this map

The confluence of the Middle Fork Clearwater River and the Selway River anchors this mid-1990s survey of the Nez Perce National Forest. The landscape is dominated by steep drainages and prominent ridges, including Radcliff Ridge and the high vantage of Goddard Point. While the area is largely characterized by its natural watercourses like O'Hara Creek and Hamby Fork, signs of federal management and infrastructure are evident. Notable landmarks include a Gaging Station and a Communication Facility perched above the river canyons.

Local history and recreational use are reflected in the presence of the O'Hara Creek Interpretive Trail and named locations such as Goddard Bar. The map also captures specialized land use through labels like the Sewage Disposal Reservoir near the river bend. The transition from imagery-based planimetry to field-checked topographic detail provides a clear look at the network of trails and unimproved roads used for forest management during this era.
