1944 Map of Headquarters

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

Headquarters serves as the industrial and logistical hub for this portion of the Clearwater National Forest in northern Idaho. The 1944 landscape reflects a timber-driven economy, evidenced by the presence of the Clearwater Timber Protective Association Headquarters and several specialized rail points like Murphy Siding and Alan Siding. A network of lookout stations, including Riverview Lookout and Shanghai Lookout, tops the high ridges to monitor the valuable timber stands. Beyond logging, the map documents mineral exploration at the Democrat Mines and Crawford Mine. Notable early 20th-century dwellings such as Casey Cabin and Newsham Cabin are recorded alongside family-named landmarks like John Lewis Lookout, showing the footprint of early settlers and foresters in the steep drainage basins of the Clearwater River and Lightning Creek.
