About this map

Clarkia and the surrounding timberlands of the St. Joe National Forest define this 2020 landscape in Shoshone County. The terrain is a complex network of drainage basins, most notably where the Middle Fork Saint Maries River flows south of the high ridgelines. Waterways like Merry Cr, Gold Center Cr, and the curiously named Two Bit Cr carve through the forested slopes, illustrating the hydrological patterns of the Idaho panhandle.

Industrial and recreational access is highlighted by an extensive system of forest roads and off-highway vehicle trails. High-elevation landmarks such as Swan Peak, Hobo Pass, and Davies Pass serve as key transit points through the mountains. Features like The Incline and the Grandmother Mountain Ohv trail suggest the historical and modern importance of these backcountry routes for both resource management and local exploration.
