2017 Map of Whiskey Butte

About this map

Dworshak Reservoir defines the northwestern corner of this Clearwater County landscape, where the reservoir waters meet a network of steep drainages. The area is characterized by a series of prominent peaks and high passes, including Whiskey Butte, Buck Butte, and Democrat Mtn, which overlook a dense web of creeks such as Christmas Cr and Snake Cr. A system of timber and mountain roads like Grangemont Rd and Porters Rd provides access through these drainages, connecting high points like Cow Creek Saddle to the valley floors. In the southern portion of the sheet, Konkols Pond sits near the headwaters of Rainy Cr, illustrating the small-scale water management typical of this forested region. The map captures the complex topography between the reservoir and the higher elevations of Bald Mtn to the east.
