1945 Map of Riggins

About this map

The Salmon River and Little Salmon River define the deep drainage of this central Idaho landscape, where the confluence at Riggins served as a vital junction for mountain travel during the late 1930s. This survey records the distinct locations of Old Pollock and the newer Pollock settlement to the south, illustrating the shifting centers of local community life. The map reveals a high-altitude network of resource management and early recreation, featuring numerous remote outposts like the Allison Guard Sta and the Higgins Hot Springs.
