2013 Map of Pot Mountain

About this map

The Bitterroot Range defines this portion of the Clearwater National Forest, where the topography is dictated by the high elevations of Pot Mtn and its associated Pot Mtn Ridge. This 2013 survey illustrates a landscape of deep drainages and sharp peaks, with the North Fork Clearwater River cutting through the southern portion of the quadrangle. High-altitude water bodies like Pot Lake and Jack Lake sit tucked into the northern slopes, while the lower elevations are marked by the presence of Elk Yard near the riverbanks. Human infrastructure is limited to the winding corridor of Co Rd 250, which follows the river's path, providing the primary access point into this interior section of Idaho's wilderness. The map reveals the intricate network of tributaries feeding the main river, including Wolf Creek, Jackknife Cr, and Death Cr.
