1995 Map of Kirkwood Creek

About this map

Hells Canyon defines the western edge of this 1990s-era landscape, where the Snake River carves through the Idaho-Oregon border. This river corridor is a primary focal point, marked by a succession of challenging water features including China Rapids, Muir Rapids, and Durham Rapids. The map reveals a land utilized for both recreation and historic ranching, evidenced by the Kirkwood Historic Ranch and several high-altitude outposts such as Dixon Cow Camp and Cold Springs Cow Camp. Industrial and archaeological history is visible in the presence of Pictographs along the river and the Blue Jacket Mine and Hardin Mill further inland. The rugged verticality of the terrain is bridged by landmarks like Wick iup Butte and Triangle Mountain, while the Nez Perce National Forest and Wallowa-Whitman National Forest manage the surrounding wilderness areas, reflecting the remote and preserved character of this river-driven economy.
