About this map

Silver King Mine stands near the center of this Latah County landscape, marking a legacy of extraction in the timber-heavy terrain of northern Idaho. The topography is defined by significant elevations such as McGary Butte and Jackson Mountain, while the hydrology is dominated by the East Fork Potlatch River and its numerous tributaries, including Ruby Creek and Jackson Creek.

Small settlements and points of interest like Neva and Kameron sit along the drainage of Cameron Creek, illustrating the dispersed nature of habitation in this area. Forest roads and trails, such as East Fork Rd and NFD 3308 tr1, provide the primary access through the drainage basins of Butterfield Creek and Oviatt Creek. The map also identifies specific clearings and high-elevation grazing areas like Oviatt Meadows and Bloom Meadows, which remain central landmarks in this rural mountain geography.
