2011 Map of Lookout Peak

About this map

Lookout Peak and the surrounding high country of Idaho County define this landscape, where a network of peaks and saddles shaped early travel and seasonal camps. The terrain is marked by significant hydrological features including Lookout Lake, Monroe Lake, and Gem Lake, which feed a complex system of drainages such as Monroe Creek and Lookout Creek. Established encampments like Little Cabin Meadows and Windy Ridge Camp indicate the area's importance for forest management or backcountry recreation. Traces of historical movement are evident in the Lolo Trl, which traverses the southern portion of the map near Indian Grave Peak. Numerous forestry and access roads, including Mire Creek Rd, navigate the ridges and slopes, connecting landmarks like 12 Mile Saddle and Marten Hill to the various creek basins below.
