1997 Map of Richards Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Kootenai National Forest dominates this landscape, showing the managed wilderness of Lincoln County as it was understood in the late 1990s. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Richards Mountain, Dunn Peak, and Mount Sterling, which anchor a complex drainage system feeding into numerous mountain streams. Waterways like Dunn Creek, Richards Creek, and Wolf Creek carve through the high country, illustrating the topographic character that dictated early access and land use. Evidence of human activity is sparse but specific, centered on the Baenen Ranch and a Gravel Pit along the southern reaches near the Wolf Creek drainage. The mapping of 4wd routes and unnamed trails underscores the remote nature of these summits, providing a detailed record of the forest's primitive road network during this period of USDA Forest Service management.
