About this map

The confluence of the Lochsa River and Selway River anchors this mid-century survey, marking the birth of the Middle Fk Clearwater R. The small settlement of Lowell sits at this hydrologic junction, serving as a gateway between the Clearwater National Forest to the north and the Nezperce National Forest to the south. The landscape is defined by steep drainage systems like Pete King Creek and Deadman Creek, separated by sharp features such as Knife Edge Ridge. Human activity is concentrated along the river corridors, where infrastructure includes several campgrounds like Lodge Creek Campground, a Gaging Station, and a Tramway. Higher elevations are traversed by an extensive Pack Trail network, connecting points like Rye Patch and the Chitwood Mine, indicating a history of backcountry access and resource extraction.
