1968 Map of Mount Harrison

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Mount Harrison rises as the central landmark of this high-altitude landscape in southern Idaho, anchored by the Sawtooth Mountains National Forest which covers the eastern half of the sheet. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, including Willow Creek, Clyde Creek, and the headwaters of Cassia Creek. Human activity in the late 1960s appears concentrated around resource extraction and recreation, evidenced by Prospects and the Myers Mine in the southwest, while the northern slopes provide for public use at Lake Cleveland and the Brackenbury Campground. A notable hydrological feature is the Gaging Station located along the southern reaches of Cassia Creek, monitoring the water flow through this complex system of canyons like Big Cedar Canyon and Bedke Canyon. The presence of several Jeep Trails suggests a landscape navigated for both utility and access to the numerous springs that dot the mountainsides.
