1966 Map of Lick Point

About this map

The Nez Perce National Forest defines the character of this mid-1960s terrain, where the headwaters of the American River and its numerous tributaries carve through the central Idaho landscape. The map provides a clear look at the industrial impact on the mountain environment, specifically near the confluence of Ericson Creek and the American River. Evidence of large-scale mineral processing is visible through labels for a Dredge and substantial Tailings deposits along the riverbanks. This area, largely defined by its drainage systems like Horse Creek and Flint Creek, is navigated by a network of primitive routes marked as Pack Trail and Jeep Trail. High-altitude openings such as Buck Meadows and Marten Meadows serve as distinct landmarks amidst the steep slopes of Ericson Ridge and Flatiron Ridge, illustrating the relationship between the remote timberlands and the historic search for resources in the Idaho wilderness.
