1956 Map of Warren

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The settlement of Warren sits deep within the Nez Perce National Forest, serving as a focal point for the region's historic mining activity. Gold mining history is visible through extensive tailings deposits along Warren Creek and the presence of the Rescue Mine and Unity Mine. The landscape is dominated by the steep canyons of the Salmon River and its South Fork, where isolated riverside outposts like Shep Ranch, Indian Creek Ranch, and Badley Ranch represent the sparse human footprint in this backcountry. Higher elevations are marked by landmarks such as Burgdorf Summit and Mill Point. The map details a network of drainage systems, including Polly Creek and Moccasin Creek, that shaped the travel and prospecting routes of the mid-20th century. Remote structures like James Cabin and small airstrips near Mackay Bar highlight the era's reliance on air and trail access.
