1966 Map of Savage Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Clearwater National Forest and the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness dominate this 1966 topographic study, showing a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and high-altitude watercourses. The map details a remote backcountry infrastructure centered on the Colt Creek Cabin and the nearby Colt Creek Campground, accessible only via an extensive network of Pack Trails. High points like Savage Ridge and Tamarack Mountain overlook the drainage basins of White Sand Creek and its many tributaries, including Crab Creek and Storm Creek. A lone Lookout point on the ridge suggests the historical importance of fire observation in this heavily timbered region. The presence of an Indefinite Boundary and the Wilderness Boundary illustrates the mid-century administrative efforts to preserve these interior Idaho lands from industrial development.
