About this map

The northern reaches of the Kaniksu National Forest define this 2020 landscape in Bonner County, where the terrain is dominated by high peaks and an intricate network of drainage creeks. Prominent landmarks such as Quartz Mtn, Pee Wee Peak, and Jasper Mtn overlook the valleys of Moores Cr and the Lower W Br Priest River. This modern survey illustrates the current management of the forest through a complex system of National Forest Development Roads, including NFD 1314 RD and NFD 1355 RD.

Small settlements like Four Corners and Snow Valley sit on the western edge of the quadrangle, serving as gateways to the deeper wilderness. The map details the transition from residential access roads like Johnson Rd and Bear Paw Rd to specialized forest routes like the John Wayne Loop and the Steep Creek Trl, showing how contemporary recreation and forestry infrastructure navigate the steep Idaho elevations.
