1995 Map of Thor Mountain

About this map

St Joe River carves a deep valley through this portion of the St Joe National Forest, serving as a central geographic corridor as it flows westward. The terrain is defined by steep ridges and prominent peaks, including the 1995 elevation data for Thor Mountain and the towering Adams Peak in the northeast. This landscape reveals a complex network of drainage basins, where Nugget Creek, Bluff Creek, and the West Fork feed into larger systems. Evidence of historical activity is found in names like Prospector Ridge and Nugget Hill, suggesting the area's legacy of mineral exploration. Transport is limited to a sparse network of 4wd tracks, underscoring the wilderness character of the region. Distinctive features like Hardpan Ridge and the Bluff Divide provide a clear view of the high-altitude topography that separates these watersheds.
