1979 Map of North Pole

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The high-altitude mining and wilderness landscape of Idaho County is documented here during the late 1970s and 1980s. Centered on the towering North Pole summit, the terrain is defined by the steep ridges and alpine basins of the Gospel Hump region within the Nez Perce National Forest. The map captures a moment when mining history and primitive recreation converged, evidenced by the North Star Mine and Wiseboy Mine located near the headwaters of Wiseboy Creek. Scattered Ruins and a Prospect further indicate the area's prospecting legacy.
