About this map

Twin Crags and Latour Peak anchor the high terrain of the Bitterroot Mountains in this contemporary 2020 topographic record of the Idaho Panhandle. The landscape is defined by the three-way intersection of Kootenai, Shoshone, and Benewah counties, where the high ridgeline of the Saint Joe Divide separates complex drainage systems. Named summits like Mt Wiessner, Frost Peak, and Latour Baldy tower over a network of timber and forest access routes, including Nat Forest Develop Road 453 RD and Coeur d Alene NFD 2313 RD.

Historically significant gulches such as Cataldo Gulch, Sourdough Gulch, and Ross Gulch indicate the region's legacy of prospecting and resource extraction. At the base of the crags, the secluded Mirror Lake sits as a notable landmark amidst the headwaters of Little Baldy Cr and the various forks of Pine Cr. This map provides a clear view of the modern forest management infrastructure and the enduring physical geography of this tri-county border region.
