1966 Map of Watchtower Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Watchtower Peak stands as a prominent landmark on this mid-1960s survey, marking the intersection of the Bitterroot National Forest and the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between Idaho and Montana, following the high ridges that separate Idaho and Ravalli counties. Drainage patterns are intricately mapped, showing the headwaters of numerous waterways including Indian Creek, Schofield Creek, and North Fork Sheephead Creek. Notable high points like Indian Hill and Cooper Point serve as anchors within the primitive terrain. This map captures the area as it was formally documented in the years following the Wilderness Act, providing a precise record of the original Wilderness Boundary and the natural drainage basins of Pack Creek and Coyote Creek before later environmental shifts.
