1962 Map of Vinegar Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Payette National Forest dominates this wilderness landscape along the border of Idaho and Valley Counties. The 1962 survey reveals a remote backcountry accessible primarily by water and air, evidenced by the distribution of remote airfields like Vines Landing Strip, Cabin Creek Landing Strip, and Miles Landing Strip. High-elevation landmarks such as Cold Mtn and Vinegar Hill define the steep topography, while Big Creek serves as the primary drainage through the southern portion of the sheet. Notable for its lack of established road networks, the area relies on historic crossings like Caswell Crossing and a system of creek forks, including Crooked Fork Creek and South Fork Cottonwood Creek. Small basins such as Towhead Basin and Browns Basin provide natural clearings within the dense forest, offering a clear view of the mid-century wilderness before modern development or recreation expanded in the region.
