1963 Map of The Nub

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The North Fork Clearwater River carves a deep path through this section of the Clearwater National Forest, defining the drainage patterns of the surrounding highlands. Dominating the upper elevations are landmarks like The Nub and the Sheep Mtn Range, where the terrain drops sharply toward the river valley. The map reveals the isolation of the Idaho wilderness in the mid-20th century, with the Collins Creek Cabin and Wallow Mtn Lookout serving as the few scattered points of human activity. River navigation and proximity are noted by river markers such as Mile 70, while smaller drainages like Skull Creek and Grizzly Creek feed into the main waterway. Landforms such as Indian Henry Ridge and the broad Moscow Bar Ridge provide a clear view of the complex ridgeline systems that challenged early Forest Service travel between the Canyon and Bungalow Ranger Stations.
