1963 Map of The Nub

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The North Fork Clearwater River winds through the heart of the Clearwater National Forest in this early 1960s topographic study. This landscape is defined by its deep drainages and high lookout points, such as the Wallow Mtn Lookout and the prominent peak known as The Nub, which overlooks the small Nub Lakes. Evidence of high-altitude habitation and resource management appears at the Collins Creek Cabin and the riverside landing at Moscow Bar. The map reveals a complex network of named ridges and mountain ranges, including Indian Henry Ridge and the Sheep Mtn Range, which served as critical landmarks for foresters and early backcountry travelers. Numerous tributaries like Skull Creek and Quartz Creek feed the main river, illustrating the intricate drainage patterns of the Clearwater drainage before significant modern development altered the wilderness character.
