1995 Map of Johnson Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1999

About this map

Salmon River carving through the heart of central Idaho defines this landscape, where the Salmon Wild and Scenic River corridor separates the Gospel Hump Wilderness to the north from the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness and Payette National Forest to the south. The river's powerful descent is marked by navigation hazards such as Dried Meat Rapids, Little Growler Rapids, and Canopener Rapids, with Indian Crossing serving as a notable point of transit. The southern portion of the sheet reveals a history of extraction concentrated around Skoug Ridge and the Beaver Creek drainage, where numerous lode operations including the Sherman-Howe Mine, Golden Anchor Mine, and Kimberly Mine are located. High-altitude saddles like Canada Saddle and Beartrap Saddle provide natural passes through the steep terrain between prominent peaks like Johnson Butte.
