1969 Map of Thompson Point

About this map

Clearwater River North Fork terrain defines this landscape just as the local environment was undergoing a massive transformation. This survey was conducted as the region prepared for the rising waters of the Dworshak Reservoir, with blue hatching indicating areas slated for submersion once the pool reached its intended level. Two specific river access points, Butte Creek Landing and Isabella Landing, are located along the northern stretch of the water, marking the river-based economy and transportation network before the inundation. The topography reflects the intense management of the surrounding National Forest land, where river landings served as critical touchpoints for early twentieth-century timber and mountain transit.
