About this map

Grangemont serves as the primary point of settlement in this Clearwater County landscape, appearing here as it was surveyed in the late 1960s. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the North Fork Clearwater River Dworshak Reservoir, a significant water body at an elevation of 1600 feet. This reservoir, fed by numerous tributaries such as O'Neil Creek and Hudson Creek, illustrates the impact of large-scale water management on the Idaho terrain during this period.

Moving south from the river, the geography is defined by a series of buttes and drainages, including Angel Butte and Huckleberry Butte. Local history is anchored by the presence of Marsh Cem, located near the headwaters of Whiskey Creek. A network of Jeep Trails provides access through the various forks of White Creek and Canyon Creek, reflecting the logging and recreational activity that shaped the development of this Idaho interior.
