1990 Map of Harvard

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Harvard sits along the banks of the Palouse River in this 1990 survey of the Idaho panhandle, illustrating a landscape defined by timber, recreation, and mineral extraction. The small settlement is surrounded by the vast St Joe National Forest, where the topography rises sharply toward Flynn Butte and Strychnine Ridge. Notable for local history and genealogy, the map identifies the Woodfell Cem nestled along Cow Creek and the legacy of mining in the area via the Gold Hill Mine and Gold Bug Mine near Jerome Creek. Recreational life is evident at Laird Park Campground and Camp Grizzly, while the natural hydrology is traced through numerous drainages including Strychnine Creek, Quartz Creek, and Ruby Creek. The map provides a precise look at the transition from river valley to high ridge before the modern era, showing the infrastructure of the day from a Gaging Station to a Windmill and a Quarry.
