1963 Map of Meyers Cove Point

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The remote Meyers Cove settlement and its surrounding mining landscape are captured here in the mid-1960s, showing a transition between the Salmon National Forest and the Challis National Forest. High-altitude mining activity is evident at the Singheiser Mine and several unnamed mines concentrated near Fluorspar Ridge and Fluorspar Gulch. This area is characterized by steep drainage systems like Silver Creek and Camas Creek, where small-scale human footprints such as the Splettstosser Ranch appear alongside an extensive network of trails and jeep trails. Geological landmarks like Castle Rock and Meyers Cove Point define the rugged verticality of the terrain. The map provides a detailed view of the resource-extraction economy and isolated ranching life that persisted in Lemhi County decades after the initial mining booms.
