1963 Map of Moughmer Point

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Salmon River carves a deep path through the center of this Idaho landscape, creating a dramatic corridor flanked by Moughmer Ridge and Bingman Ridge. In the early 1960s, human activity along the river concentrated at points like American Bar and Cooper Bar, while the plateau of the Joseph Plains rises to the west. This survey illustrates the era's reliance on rudimentary transport networks, including a Tramway and several unnamed trails and jeep trails that negotiate the steep canyon walls. Distinctive topographical features like Devils Garden and the precipice of Moughmer Point highlight the land's difficult character. Small localized landmarks such as the Community Corral and Rice Creek Bridge indicate a sparse, ranching-oriented settlement pattern defined by the drainage systems of Rocky Canyon Creek and Gillespie Gulch.
