2020 Map of Selway Falls

About this map

The Selway River cuts a deep path through this portion of the Nez Perce National Forest, where the landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes between high ridgelines and the river canyon. This area is designated as the Middle Fork Clearwater Wild and Scenic River, preserving its primitive character. Notable landforms like Glover Ridge and Falls Point tower over the drainage basins of Gedney Creek and Meadow Creek. The map documents the limited access points into this wilderness, primarily via the Selway Rd and a handful of forest routes like Fog Mtn Rd and Falls Point Rd. Significant landmarks for backcountry navigation include Selway Falls and Fog Mountain Saddle, alongside high-altitude clearings such as Timothy Flats. The drainage network is dense, featuring numerous tributaries like Puckett Cr and Canteen Cr feeding the main river system.
