About this map

The Lemhi Range dominates this late-1960s survey, marking a high-elevation divide where Challis National Forest meets Targhee National Forest. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages and prominent peaks, including Saddle Mountain and Tyler Peak. Human presence is minimal, evidenced primarily by a high-altitude Jeep Tr winding through Tyler Canyon in the northern portion of the quadrangle.

Water sources are vital markers in this high-country terrain, with North Spring and Kyle Spring providing essential points of interest for historical land use. The complex drainage system includes the Middle Fork and South Fork at the base of Kyle Canyon, illustrating the natural watershed patterns of Butte County before modern development. An Indefinite Boundary and the line between Butte and Clark Counties bisect the summits, showing the intersection of administrative lines with natural mountain topography.
