2012 Map of Jarbidge South

About this map

The settlement of Jarbidge occupies the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape, where the Jarbidge Post Office serves as a focal point for the remote community. The terrain is defined by the Jarbidge Mountains, featuring prominent peaks such as Jarbidge Peak, Matterhorn, and Bald Peak. This high country is dotted with seasonal or historic habitations, including The Twins Cabin, Vukovich Cabin, and the Coeur Dalene Jarbidge Cabins. The network of watercourses, led by the Jarbidge River and its tributaries like Bonanza Creek and Fox Creek, creates a complex drainage system through deep canyons such as Snowslide Gulch and Gorge Gulch. In the southern reaches, the Copper Basin and Meadow Fork reveal the region's geological diversity, while craters like the Little Jack Creek Crater mark the eastern heights. The presence of several US Forest Service sites, including the Pine Creek National Forest Campground and Bluster National Forest Campground, indicates the area's significance for public land management.
