About this map

The high backcountry of Nez Perce National Forest dominates this topographic study, characterized by a network of peaks and high-elevation basins. Significant landmarks include Marble Butte and Square Mtn, which provide vertical context for the surrounding meadows and water sources. Square Mountain Lake and Twin Lakes sit in the northern reaches, while Sweet Anise Spring and Anchor Meadow offer more localized points of interest for those tracking historical land use or natural features in Idaho County.

Modern access is represented primarily by Moores Station Rd, which winds through the western terrain. The landscape is deeply dissected by drainages like Long Meadow Cr and Peterson Cr, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Clearwater Mountains region. Named ridges and meadows such as Bear Grass Ridge and Porcupine Meadow indicate a geography defined by traditional grazing or landmark navigation within the national forest boundaries.
