2017 Map of Selway Falls

About this map

The Selway River carves a deep path through the Nez Perce National Forest, creating a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and a network of tributary creeks. This modern survey shows the central importance of Selway Falls, a significant natural landmark where the river meets Falls Cr. The area is accessible primarily through a limited network of forest routes, including Selway Rd and Falls Point Rd, which provide access to elevated terrain like Glover Ridge and Timothy Flats. High-altitude landmarks such as Fog Mountain Saddle and Falls Point overlook the valleys of Gedney Cr and Meadow Creek. The map illustrates a contemporary wilderness management era where named points and ridges serve as primary navigational markers in a territory devoid of permanent settlements.
