2011 Map of Whiskey Butte

About this map

Whiskey Butte and the surrounding drainage of Whiskey Creek define this Idaho landscape, where high ridges separate numerous tributaries flowing toward the northern reaches of the Dworshak Reservoir. The map reveals a history of resource extraction, highlighted by the Democrat Mine and the nearby Crawford Mine situated along the slopes of Democrat Mountain. These sites are linked by a network of forest roads like Grangemont Rd and Snake Creek Rd, which navigate the steep terrain between Cow Creek Saddle and the valley of Cow Creek. Small settlements and seasonal locations like Cully Moores and Porters Camp provide evidence of local residence and forestry activity, while Konkols Pond and the Campbells Pond Access Area mark points of water access within the dense creek network that feeds into Orofino Creek and beyond.
