2013 Map of Lem Peak

About this map

Lemhi Range peaks and high-elevation basins define this 2013 topographic study within the Salmon National Forest. The landscape is dominated by significant summits like Lem Peak and a complex drainage network where waters from Bear Valley Cr, McNutt Cr, and Wright Cr flow through deeply incised valleys. This sheet provides a detailed view of the remote backcountry access used by local hunters and foresters, tracing routes such as Basin Creek Rd and Trail Creek Rd. Small alpine water bodies, including Basin Lake and the Buck Lakes, are positioned high in the drainages, serving as primary landmarks for those navigating the wilderness. The map's layout highlights the transition from the high ridges like Long Ridge down to the broader alpine bowls of First Basin and Hayden Basin, offering a precise record of the hydrological and topographical features in this portion of Lemhi County.
