1963 Map of Hat Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Salmon National Forest dominates this Idaho landscape, where the Salmon River cuts through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by significant elevations, including Iron Mountain and King Mountain, with numerous drainages like Beaver Gulch and South Gulch feeding into the intricate waterway system. This 1963 survey captures the high-country ranching and transit infrastructure of the mid-century, specifically noting the Little Hat Ranch situated near the confluence of Little Hat Creek and Hat Creek. Transportation in this area was largely dependent on primitive infrastructure, evidenced by several Jeep Trails and a Trail system navigating the steep slopes. Of particular note for local history are the remote Cable Crossing locations along the river and a lone Cabin in the northern reach, reflecting the isolation of these Lemhi and Custer county borderlands.
