2017 Map of White Bird Hill

About this map

White Bird Hill and its dramatic surrounding topography dominate this Idaho County landscape within the Nez Perce National Forest. The map documents a complex network of historical and modern transportation routes, including Old Hwy 95 and the winding Old White Bird Hill Rd, which navigate the steep descent into White Bird Canyon. The drainage patterns are defined by the convergence of the N Fork White Bird Cr and S Fork White Bird Cr, carving deep draws such as Hernden Draw and Warden Gulch. High-elevation features like White Bird Hill Summit and Pinnacle Ridge overlook remote landing strips, including Wind Ridge Airport and Pinnacle Airport, illustrating the reliance on backcountry aviation in this isolated mountain terrain.
