2004 Map of Pilot Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2007

About this map

The South Fork Salmon River carves a deep path through this portion of the Payette National Forest, dictating the placement of early infrastructure and small outposts. This 2004 revision, based on surveys dating back to the 1960s, highlights the isolation and utilitarian nature of the landscape at the turn of the 21st century. High-elevation points like China Mountain and Pilot Peak, which features a prominent Lookout, overlook a network of drainages including Elk Creek and Flat Creek. Small centers of activity are sparse, appearing as the settlement of Shiefer and the established Hays Station. The legacy of extraction is visible near the western edge of the map, where the Pony Mine sits at the end of Pony Road. Aviation plays a critical role in accessing this remote terrain, evidenced by multiple clearings designated as Landing Strip along the river banks and creek flats.
