The First Smoke Jump Site marks a pivotal location in wildland firefighting history within the northern reaches of the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness. This terrain is characterized by high alpine peaks and drainage systems where the Nez Perce National Forest meets the Wilderness Boundary. Significant summits like Grave Meadow Peak, Elk Mountain, and Bilk Mountain define the watershed, feeding a network of alpine lakes including Running Lake, Bilk Lake, and Red Lake.
