2011 Map of Ulysses

About this map

Kitty Burton Mine and the Ulysses Mine sit tucked into the high drainages above the Salmon River in this rugged section of Lemhi County. The landscape is defined by deep incisions like Kitty Gulch and Brushy Gulch, leading down from prominent heights such as Bald Mountain and Dutchler Mountain. This area illustrates a classic western mining and ranching economy, where narrow forest roads like Squaw Creek Rd and Salmon River Rd provide the only access through steep terrain. The Indian Creek Guest Ranch represents the modern intersection of these historical land uses, located near where Indian Creek meets its east and west forks. Along the southern edge, the river corridor remains the primary focal point for activity, marked by features such as Cadigan, Transfer Gulch, and Sawlog Gulch.
