About this map

Headquarters stands as the primary settlement in this part of Clearwater County, situated amidst a complex drainage system within the Clearwater National Forest. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Silver Butte and the curiously named Dull Axe Mtn, which overlook a network of creek basins. Waterways such as North Fork Silver Creek, Silver Creek, and Cougar Creek flow through the northern reaches, while Eureka Meadows and Casey Meadow offer open terrain in the western valleys.

Transport and access are dictated by the rugged topography, with Co Rd 247 and Reeds Creek Rd providing the essential corridors through these mountains. These routes follow the natural paths carved by streams like North Fork Reeds Creek and Loop Creek. For the local historian or genealogist, the map details the proximity of the Headquarters community to various named peaks and meadowlands, reflecting a legacy of forestry and remote Idaho settlement.
