1994 Map of Sand Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

St Joe National Forest dominates this landscape, encompassing a rugged network of drainage systems and ridge-lines in northern Idaho. The upper reaches of the Palouse River and the St Joe River converge within this topography, carving deep gulches such as California Gulch and Hoodoo Gulch. Resource extraction history is evident through the presence of the Last Chance Mine and Olson Mine located in the southern portion of the quadrangle. High-altitude points like Sand Mountain and Beals Butte provide significant landmarks for navigating the dense forest terrain. The map details the transition between these steep peaks and the lush river valleys, including Graves Meadow. This survey reflects the complex management of these lands, noted as being administered by the Clearwater National Forest, and highlights the early timber and mining access routes like the Sand Mountain Trail.
