1972 Map of Mt. Ireland

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Whitman National Forest dominates the landscape of this Grant and Baker County border region, showcasing an extensive network of 19th and early 20th-century lode mining operations. The crest of the Blue Mountains is marked by the Mt Ireland Lookout, which oversees a high-elevation terrain etched with named gulches and alpine meadows like Mahoney Mdws and Gold Center Meadow. The dense concentration of extraction sites, including the California Mine, Imperial Eagle Mine, and the Mormon Boy Mine, illustrates the intensity of the gold and silver rushes that once defined this area.
