About this map

The Lochsa River carves a deep path through this portion of the Clearwater National Forest, defining the region's transport and recreational corridors. Along the riverbank, established sites like Boulder Flat, Beaver Flat, and Black Canyon mark the limited level ground within this vertical landscape. The Wilderness Gateway Pack Bridge serves as a critical point of access for backcountry travelers crossing the river toward higher elevations.

Away from the water, the terrain is dominated by prominent summits including Lochsa Peak and Huckleberry Butte. High-elevation basins hold remote water bodies such as Lottie Lake and Maude Lake, while the north-facing slopes are drained by a dense network of tributaries like Pagoda Cr, Dipper Cr, and Huckleberry Cr. The map details the transition from the primary artery of US Hwy 12 to more primitive routes like Fish Creek Rd, illustrating the intersection of modern access and protected wilderness.
