2017 Map of Long Tom Mountain

About this map

Salmon National Forest encompasses the high country and river canyons documented in this survey, defined by the meeting of the Salmon River and the Middle Fork Salmon River. The terrain is characterized by steep elevation changes between peaks like Long Tom Mtn and the deep river valleys below. Human presence is sparse and largely concentrated near the water, with Stoddard Bridge providing a critical crossing point and the settlement of Stoddard established nearby. The map illustrates the specialized navigation of this era, marking the Long Tom Rapids as a significant river feature. Forest roads such as Colson Creek Rd and Salmon River Rd snake through the drainage basins of Cramer Basin and Bear Basin, providing access to high-altitude landmarks like Bear Camp Spring and the secluded Dome Lake.
