About this map

Scurvy Mtn and the surrounding wilderness of Clearwater National Forest define this high-elevation landscape. The drainage network is dominated by the North Fork Clearwater River, which receives numerous tributaries including Kelly Creek, Slippery Cr, and Barnard Cr. The topography is characterized by significant vertical relief, with prominent peaks like the Moose Mountains and Moose Creek Buttes overlooking deep drainages and small alpine features such as Scurvy Lake.

Access to this remote interior is limited to a few corridor routes, most notably Black Canyon Rd and Moose Creek Rd. The presence of Pony Flats and Switchback Hill suggests a landscape shaped by both natural open spaces and the challenging grades required for mountain transit. The map also delineates several land parcels, marked as protraction blocks such as pb47, within the larger forest boundaries.
