1994 Map of Pinchot Butte

About this map

St Joe National Forest and Floodwood State Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape along the border of Shoshone and Clearwater counties. The map captures a backcountry interior defined by timber management and remote outposts, including the CPTPA Headquarters and several isolated camps such as Diamond Floodwood Camp and Last Inch Camp. In the south, the Dworshak Reservoir fills the valley of the Little North Fork Clearwater River, reflecting the significant topographical changes brought by mid-century dam projects. Cultural sites like the Mary Mix Cabin (Site) and names such as Deadman Point and Bear Wallow hint at a history of early settlers and hunters who moved through these steep ridges and narrow creek drainages long before the modern trail network was established.
