About this map

Noxon Reservoir dominates the northern edge of this 2017 survey, where the Cabinet Mountains transition into the deep drainages of the Kaniksu National Forest. The small settlement of Larchwood sits perched above the reservoir's eastern reach, connected by a network of forest roads like Marten Creek Rd and the Old Hwy. The interior terrain is defined by high ridgelines and steep drainages, including the prominent Beecher Peak, Woodchuck Peak, and Eightmile Peak.

Navigation through this landscape relies on geographic breaks such as Minton Creek Pass, which provides passage between the watersheds of Tuscor Cr and Minton Cr. A series of named gulches, including Veals Gulch, Sage Gulch, and Fir Gulch, underscore the complex topography. The map detail highlights the hydrological network feeding the Clark Fork system, from the W Fork Trout Cr to the southernmost White Pine Cr.
