1966 Map of Selway Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

The confluence of the Selway River and Meadow Creek defines this reach of the Nezperce National Forest during the mid-1960s. The landscape is oriented around the powerful hydrology of the river system, featuring the namesake Selway Falls and specialized infrastructure such as a Fish Ladder and Gaging Station near the river bend. The map illustrates a shift toward wilderness preservation and recreation, with the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness boundary cutting across the eastern slopes. A network of primitive facilities, including Gedney Creek and Race Creek Campground, serves those navigating the river corridor. Human movement through the steep terrain is restricted to the river-bank roads and a high-elevation Pack Trail that crosses Glover Ridge, highlighting the area's role as a managed natural sanctuary for the Forest Service and recreational visitors.
