1969 Map of Sunset Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Lost River Range peaks dominate this high-altitude 1969 survey of Butte County, where the topography reaches its height at Sunset Peak. Managed as part of the Challis National Forest, this terrain is defined by a series of steep, named drainages that feed into the valley below. The drainage network includes family-named and descriptive landmarks like Van Dorn Canyon, Buck Canyon, and Maddock Canyon, illustrating the late-century reliance on Jeep Trails for access into these remote reaches. The map identifies specific geographical features such as Sands Canyon and Jaggles Canyon, along with the winding course of the North Fork. This document provides a record of land management and natural boundaries before more modern developments, showing the exact relationship between the high ridge lines and the deep canyons that carve through this section of the Idaho interior.
