About this map

The steep terrain of the Idaho panhandle's mining country is the focus of this late-twentieth-century study, where the Coeur d'Alene National Forest meets the St Joe National Forest. The landscape is dominated by the high points of Polaris Peak and Silver Hill, defined by a dense network of extraction sites including numerous labeled prospects and an Adit. This concentration of mining activity, particularly around Mc Farren Gulch and the ridges above Big Creek, indicates the ongoing mineral exploration and timber management that shaped the region's economy.
