1990 Map of Pistol Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Pistol Lake and the high elevations of the Boise National Forest dominate this backcountry survey of Valley County, Idaho. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of numerous drainages, including Pistol Creek, Little Pistol Creek, and East Fork Burntlog Creek, which flow through the protected Frank Church Return of No Return Wilderness. Human presence is minimal, marked primarily by isolated structures like the Snowshoe Cabin and high-altitude transit routes such as the Mc Clure Trail and the Summit Trail. This 1990 map illustrates a region managed for wilderness preservation, where prominent landforms like Little Baldy, Lake Mountain, and the long reach of Artillery Ridge dictate the movement of both water and travelers. The mapping of Snowshoe Summit and various benchmarks, such as BM 7935, provides precise data for a terrain that remains largely undeveloped and wild.
