About this map

Headquarters serves as the focal point for this section of Clearwater County, situated at the confluence of several vital mountain corridors. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of Reeds Cr, including its northern and southern forks, and the Silver Cr basin to the north. These waterways carve through a terrain punctuated by significant elevations like Silver Butte and the curiously named Dull Axe Mtn.

Logging and forest management are written into the map through an extensive network of designated routes such as Browns Rock Rd and Telephone Creek Rd. These roads connect isolated outposts like Casey Meadow and Eureka Meadows, which represent the few open clearings in an otherwise densely timbered landscape. The convergence of N Fork Reeds Cr and its tributaries near the main settlement highlights the area's historical reliance on water systems and mountain passes for navigation through the northern Idaho wilderness.
