1966 Map of Running Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Running Lake sits at the heart of this mid-1960s survey, surrounded by the high-elevation terrain of the Nez Perce National Forest. The landscape is defined by the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness boundary, where access is limited to a network of Pack Trails that connect remote glacial cirques and peaks. Significant high-country features include Grave Meadow and Indian Park, which provide rare open spaces amidst a complex system of drainages such as Grave Creek and Running Creek. The distribution of numerous small lakes, including Bilk Lake, Square Rock Lake, and Fawn Lake, suggests a classic alpine environment. Geologic landmarks like Square Rock and Rock Pillar serve as natural navigation points for those traversing the heights between Elk Mountain and Grave Meadow Peak.
