1996 Map of Grass Mountain

About this map

Kaniksu National Forest and Priest Lake State Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape along the international border between Canada and the United States. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent summits including Grass Mountain, Blue Joe Mountain, and Trapper Peak, which overlook a complex drainage system of named waters like Bog Creek and Blue Joe Creek. Evidence of local industry and resource extraction appears at the Parker Mine and a Gravel Pit near the southern edge of the forest boundaries. The map details a network of high-mountain lakes, such as Saddle Lake, Search Lake, and Joe Lake, which are connected by small streams like Saddle Creek and Silver Creek. This 1990s revision by the Forest Service provides a detailed view of the remote drainage patterns and crests at the northernmost reaches of Idaho.
