1966 Map of Mink Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Selway River cuts a deep course through this interior portion of the Nez Perce National Forest during the mid-1960s, a landscape defined by its lack of roads and reliance on a network of Pack Trails. The terrain is dominated by prominent high points such as Mink Peak and Weasel Point, with dramatic drainage systems like Three Links Creek and Tango Creek feeding into the main river channel. Within the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, the map identifies localized features of interest for backcountry historians, including the Marten Hot Springs and the remote waters of Doe Lake. The presence of river markers like Mile 130 and naming conventions such as Sixtytwo Ridge and Meeker Ridge reflect the systematic surveying of this unpopulated Idaho backcountry before modern digital mapping, preserving the specific trail alignments used by forest rangers and early recreationalists.
