1967 Map of Sixmile Creek

About this map

The Clearwater River cuts a deep path through this North Central Idaho landscape, forming the natural boundary between Lewis and Idaho counties. This 1967 survey, with updates from the 1980s, highlights a rugged terrain defined by significant drainage systems including Lolo Creek, Fivemile Creek, and Sixmile Creek. The eastern bank of the river is traced by a major roadway, while the interior uplands are accessible primarily via a Jeep Trail. Evidence of local infrastructure and resource extraction appears in the southwest with a Substation and scattered industrial sites like a Gravel Pit and several Borrow Pits. The map captures the area before significant modern development, showing the tributary of Effie Creek and the dense contouring that characterizes this river canyon region.
