1966 Map of Weitas Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Lolo Trail and various historical Pack Trails weave through the high ridges and deep creek drainages of the Clearwater National Forest in the mid-1960s. This survey, conducted shortly before the Clearwater and Idaho county lines were precisely finalized in this area, centers on the prominent Weitas Butte, which is crowned by a Lookout Tower. The landscape is defined by its significant relief, transitioning from the high point at Willow Point down toward the confluence of Weitas Creek and Little Weitas Creek. Genealogists and historians can trace the paths of early travel across this high country, identifying key transit points such as Green Saddle and Deep Saddle. Water sources like Rocky Ridge Lake and Hungery Creek provide reference points for the old forest access routes that predated modern infrastructure.
