1985 Map of West Dennis

About this map

St Joe National Forest dominates this mid-1980s landscape, where the mountainous terrain of northern Idaho reaches heights at West Dennis and East Dennis. The map documents a complex drainage system defining the Idaho panhandle, with numerous gulches and creeks feeding into larger arteries like Santa Creek and the South Fork. The boundary between Benewah Co and Latah Co cuts through the southern half of the quadrangle, marking a transition between high-elevation landmarks such as Charles Butte and the remote drainage of Big Creek. This provisional survey provides a specific look at the forest's topographic character before late-twentieth-century changes, noting landforms like Fairview Knob and Three Tree Butte that served as primary reference points for local navigation and forestry management.
