1972 Map of Mount Everly

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Mount Everly stands as the central landmark in this high-altitude landscape within the Sawtooth Wilderness, where the headwaters of major Idaho river systems begin their descent. The terrain is defined by a dense concentration of glacial cirque lakes, including the expansive Tenlake Basin and clustered waters like Spangle Lake, Benedict Lake, and Ardeth Lake. This 1972 field-checked survey illustrates the primitive transportation network of the era, relying entirely on a system of named trails such as the Queens Pack Trail and Mattingly Trails rather than motorized roads. The drainage divide is clearly marked by the separation of the South Fork Payette River to the north and the Middle Fork Boise River to the south. Other prominent summits like Plummer Peak and Glens Peak surround these basins, highlighting the area's role as a protected sanctuary within the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Boise National Forest.
