About this map

Targhee National Forest dominates this landscape in the Western Centennial Mountains, where high-altitude drainages and ridges define the borderlands of Idaho and Clark County. High peaks like Castle Peak and Signal Peak oversee a network of narrow canyons and draws, including Allan Canyon and the distinctive Pete Cr Breaks. The map details the headwaters of numerous streams, such as W Camas-Miners Creek and Steel Cr, which carve through the high terrain.

Evidence of historical resource extraction is visible through labels like the Opal Mine near Opal Mtn and Prospect Mine A in the northeastern reaches. These sites, along with names like Lone Pine Pass and Porcupine Pass, indicate a history of mountain transit and prospecting. The complex system of forest roads and spurs, such as Alex Draw Spur 1, provides a detailed look at how this interior wilderness has been accessed for timber and mining interests.
