1965 Map of Horseshoe Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Clearwater National Forest dominates this mid-1960s survey, illustrating a remote landscape defined by the drainage basins of Cayuse Creek and its many tributaries. The area is characterized by high-elevation landmarks such as Lunde Peak and Moccasin Peak, which rise above the dense network of ridges. This map reveals a wilderness accessible primarily through historical routes like the Lolo Trail and various stretches of Pack Trail, reflecting the essential forest management and recreation infrastructure of the era. Evidence of human presence and administrative utility is found at the Horseshoe Lake Lookout Tower and remote stations like Howard Camp and Saddle Camp. The hydrology is particularly detailed, tracing the winding paths of Potato Creek, Weir Creek, and the uniquely named Postoffice Cr, providing a clear record of the watershed before later environmental shifts.
