2017 Map of Weippe South

About this map

Weippe Prairie dominates the northern landscape of this Clearwater County quadrangle, where the settlement of Weippe sits at the edge of the plateau. The terrain transitions sharply to the south as the land drops toward the canyon of Lolo Creek, which serves as a natural boundary between Clearwater and Idaho counties. This topographic record documents a rural Idaho landscape defined by its timber and ranching access, featuring an extensive network of backroads such as Three Mile Rd and Woodland-Caribel Rd. Significant local landmarks include the Weippe Cem, Paunch Mtn, and the high mountain meadows of Cottonwood Flats. Remote outposts like Caribel and The Last Resort Airport highlight the region's isolated character and reliance on specialized transportation routes like the steep Adams Grade.
