About this map

The Seven Devils Mountains dominate this high-elevation landscape, where dramatic peaks like He Devil and She Devil stand near The Ogre and The Goblin. This 1990 provisional map documents a transition in land use, showing the intersection of the Nez Perce National Forest and Payette National Forest within the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area.

Evidence of historical activity is preserved in labels for the Rankin Mill (Site) Mine Ruins along Mill Creek and the Hibbs Cow Camp (Site) near Basin Lake. The map details a landscape managed for both recreation and preservation, featuring the Seven Devils Guard Sta and the Rapid River National Wild and Scenic River. Dozens of alpine water bodies, including Mirror Lake and Shelf Lake, are nestled between ridges such as Dry Diggins Ridge, providing a look at this Idaho backcountry before modern digital mapping.
