1966 Map of Shissler Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Nezperce National Forest terrain dominates this mid-1960s survey, defined by the confluence of the North Fork and East Fork rivers. The high-altitude topography is anchored by Shissler Peak Lookout Tower, overlooking a landscape carved by Moose Creek and Log Creek. Human presence is sparse and specialized, concentrated at the Moose Creek Ranger Station and the nearby Landing Strip, which served as critical access points for this interior portion of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness. The map captures the remote character of the Middle Fork Clearwater Wild and Scenic River corridor during a period of forest management and wilderness preservation. Notable landmarks like Freeman Place and Graves appear alongside extensive Pack Trail networks that follow ridges like Log Ridge, tracing the only established routes through the steep drainage systems of the Idaho backcountry.
