1963 Map of Lucile

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Salmon River carves a deep path through this portion of the Nez Perce National Forest, where the small settlement of Lucile sits on the riverbanks. This 1963 field-checked survey reveals a landscape defined by riverside bars and high ridges, punctuated by signs of early mining and habitation. Historical memory is anchored by the Chief Joseph War Historical Marker and the nearby Lucile Caves. A network of primitive transit, including the Walker Road and Sherwin Trail, connects isolated points like the Thompson Place to the river valley. The map documents the local infrastructure of the era, such as the Cow Creek Sch and a riverside Cem, alongside industrial efforts at the McKinley Mine. Distinctive river features like Box Canyon and Blackhawk Bar illustrate the complex geography that shaped Idaho's canyon-country history.
