1987 Map of Moose Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Nez Perce National Forest defines the character of this Idaho backcountry, where the Red River and its numerous forks carve through a complex drainage system. The presence of the Old Portland Mine in the northern reaches of the quadrangle points to the region's prospecting history, tucked between steep ridges and high summits like Porters Mtn. The landscape is dominated by heavy timber and sharp elevation changes, with peaks such as Moose Butte and Jack Mtn overlooking a network of named waters including Moose Meadow Creek and Relief Cr. While much of the area is accessible only by Jeep Trail, the map details the intricate hydrography of the South Fork Red River and Middle Fork Red River, reflecting a wilderness where resource extraction and forest management represent the primary human footprints.
