1994 Map of Sheep Mountain

About this map

The North Fork Clearwater River carves a deep path through this portion of the Clearwater National Forest, defining the region's transport and utility corridors. The map records a landscape managed for both timber and monitoring, anchored by the Canyon Work Center and specialized technical installations like the Aquarius Gaging Station Electronic Site. High elevations are dominated by the Sheep Mountain Range, where peaks such as Sheep Mountain and Preceptor Point overlook a dense network of drainages including Isabella Creek and Lost Creek. Strategic survey points are established at the Eagle Point Lookout Electronic Site, while natural passes like Swanson Saddle and June Saddle indicate the traditional routes through the high country. To the north, the Mallard Pioneer Larkins Area marks a transition into more primitive territory, characterized by ridges like West Sister and the headwaters of Fern Creek.
