About this map

Thor Mtn stands as a central peak in this wilderness portion of the St. Joe National Forest, where the complex drainage systems of the Saint Joe River define the terrain. The map reveals an intricate network of high ridges and points, including Pinnacle Ridge and Prospector Ridge, which served as critical landmarks for early surveyors and prospectors in the Idaho panhandle.

The landscape is marked by numerous creeks like Eagle Cr and Bullion Cr, many of whose names hint at the region's mining heritage. Forest Service access is documented through routes such as Nat For Dev Rd 372 and Fuzzy Bennett Rd, tracing the high ground between features like Hardpan Point and Bluff Divide. This survey is a detailed record of the topographic isolation and hydraulic geography of the Shoshone County backcountry in the early 21st century.
