2013 Map of Porphyry Peak

About this map

Porphyry Peak and the high elevations of the White Knob Mountains dominate this high-altitude landscape in the Challis National Forest. The geography is defined by a dense network of mountain drainages, including Boone Cr, Butcher Cr, and Stag Cr, all feeding into the valley of the E Fork Big Lost River. Human activity is sparse in this wilderness terrain, marked primarily by the Rosenkranze Ranch and the tracing of E Fork Rd through the southern river corridor. Notable landmarks like Flat Top, Castle Rock, and the deep indentation of Dry Canyon provide distinctive reference points for those navigating the backcountry between the various township and range boundaries of T7N and T8N.
