1978 Map of Waugh Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Salmon River cuts through this high-altitude landscape along the border of Idaho and Lemhi counties, where the river’s path is marked by series of river bars and technical whitewater. In the late 1970s, this area remained largely defined by its primitive status, spanning portions of the Idaho, Payette, and Salmon National Forests. The map documents a network of naming conventions tied to local landmarks, such as Lantz Bar and Fawn Creek Bar, which provided rare level ground along the steep banks. Higher elevations are dominated by features like Waugh Mountain and Bitterroot Breaks, while signs of early human presence appear at Eakin Cabin Spring. Narrow drainages such as Spindle Creek and Cottonwood Creek feed into the main river canyon, supporting the remote ecosystem and providing waypoints for travelers on the Pack Trail.
