1973 Map of Stibnite

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Stibnite and Monday Camp are central hubs in this remote mining region within the Payette National Forest and Boise National Forest. The landscape is dominated by heavy industrial extraction along the South Fork Salmon River and its tributaries, marked by the extensive Yellow Pine Mine, North Tunnel Mine, and Meadow Creek Mine. The presence of substantial tailings and mine dumps throughout the high-elevation terrain near Cinnabar Peak and Sugar Mtn illustrates the intensity of mineral operations during the mid-20th century. Logistics in this backcountry are supported by the Meadow Creek Landing Field and a network of jeep trails and pack trails that connect the canyon floors to high points like Monumental Summit. Several sites are marked as ruins, including those near Forest Grove, indicating a cycle of settlement and departure common to Idaho's resource frontiers.
