About this map

The Salmon River carves a deep path through Custer County, Idaho, on this 1982 survey, serving as the central artery for a landscape defined by industrial mining and protected wilderness. At the confluence of the river and Yankee Fork, the small settlement of Sunbeam and the nearby Sunbeam Mine reflect the area's extraction history, while the town of Clayton serves as a gateway to numerous lode operations like the Clayton Mine and Skylark Mine. The map reveals a dense concentration of mining claims between Bayhorse and the Salmon River Mountains, including the Ramshorn Mine and Keystone Mine. To the west, the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Sawtooth Wilderness preserve the glacial beauty of Redfish Lake and Alturas Lake, where recreation hubs like Stanley and Lower Stanley provide access to the high peaks.
