1966 Map of Shissler Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Shissler Peak rises as a central landmark within this mid-1960s survey of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, where the landscape is defined by the confluence of the North Fork and Moose Creek. The absence of established land lines or roads highlights the area's primitive character, preserved within the Nez Perce National Forest. Human presence is concentrated around the Moose Creek Ranger Station, which is supported by a remote Landing Strip and a network of Pack Trails used for backcountry navigation. High-altitude points such as Shasta Point, Goat Mountain, and Cone Peak surround the river valleys, while a Lookout Tower on Shissler Peak suggests the vital role of fire observation in this heavily timbered region. Numerous drainages including Whistling Pig Creek and Rhoda Creek flow through deep ridges like Sixtytwo Ridge, illustrating the complex drainage system feeding the larger forks of the Moose Creek watershed.
