1966 Map of Spot Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

The Selway River carves a deep path through the center of this mid-1960s survey, marking a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and high ridgelines within the Bitterroot National Forest. The presence of the Old Nez Perce Trail along the southern ridges provides a significant historical link to indigenous travel corridors that predated modern forest management. While most of the area is protected as part of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, signs of mid-century recreational development appear at the Indian Creek Campground and Raven Creek Campground. The map illustrates a transition in back-country access, where the traditional Pack Trail system connects prominent lookouts and summits like Spot Mountain and Mt Aura to the river valley below.
