1963 Map of Pollock Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Pollock Mountain dominates this high-country survey of the Payette National Forest in Adams County, where the topography is defined by the steep drainage basins of the Rapid River and its numerous tributaries. Human presence in this mid-century wilderness is marked by transient resource extraction and seasonal grazing sites, evidenced by the Black Leopard Discovery Mine and several scattered camps such as Campbells Cow Camp and Star Creek Camp. A solitary Grave is noted near Lonesome Creek, providing a somber reminder of the area's isolation. The network of pack trails, including the aptly named Devils Ladder, connects remote landmarks like the Lookout and Paradise Cabin. The map reveals an era of forest management and early mineral exploration, documenting specific locations like Shannon Corral and the Smoky Forest Camp before modern infrastructure reached these high basins.
