1970 Map of Paradise Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Skillern Hot Springs sits at the heart of this high-elevation wilderness within the Sawtooth National Forest. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Big Smoky Creek and its many tributaries, including Skillern Creek and the North Fork Big Smoky Creek. In 1970, this area served primarily as a destination for backcountry recreation and forestry management, evidenced by the presence of the Headquarters Camp and Canyon Campground. High peaks like Paradise Peak and Skillern Peak overlook a network of pack trails that provide the only access to remote water bodies such as Snowslide Lakes and Paradise Lake. The map details a rugged interior where landmarks like Elk Point and a simple Footbridge over the creek were vital points of orientation for travelers in the central Idaho mountains.
