1966 Map of Weitas Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Lolo Trail and the Pack Trail follow the high ridgelines across the Clearwater National Forest in this 1960s survey of the North-Central Idaho backcountry. The landscape is defined by its topographic extremes, anchored by a Lookout Tower atop Weitas Butte and the smaller Little Weitas Butte to the south. This area straddles the boundary of Clearwater Co and Idaho Co, where the steep drainage of Weitas Creek and its tributaries like Little Weitas Creek cut through the high country. Historical passage through this region is marked by significant natural landmarks such as Weitas Meadows, Green Saddle, and Deep Saddle, which likely served as crucial navigation points along the ridgeline trails. To the west, Rocky Ridge Lake sits beneath the prominent Rocky Ridge, providing a rare water source in this high-altitude terrain.
