1966 Map of Weippe South

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Weippe Prairie dominates the northern landscape of this mid-1960s survey, marking a distinct transition from the open agricultural flats near Weippe to the dense timber of the Clearwater National Forest. The geography is defined by the deep incision of Lolo Creek, which carves a rugged path across the center of the sheet, separating the upland prairies from the higher elevations of Paunch Mtn to the south. Local heritage is preserved in the location of the Weippe Cemetery and small clusters of settlement at Larson and Caribel. The map traces the early transportation network of the region, including the Wilson Trail and various jeep trails that navigate the steep breaks above Jim Ford Creek and Tom Taha Creek. This survey captures the boundary where the Nez Perce Indian Reservation meets the forested national lands, illustrating a landscape defined by both timber management and high-country ranching.
