About this map

Wood Hump Lookout stands at the center of this remote Idaho interior, marking a high point within the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness. The landscape is dominated by the steep drainage basins of the Middle Fork Clearwater River and the Selway River Wild and Scenic River. These watercourses are fed by an intricate network of tributaries including Wilkerson Creek, Storm Creek, and Thirteen Creek.

Evidence of seasonal high-country use appears at Thompson Flat and Storm Cr Flat, likely reflecting the region's history of backcountry recreation and forestry management. The map also delineates the high-altitude boundary between Idaho Co and Lemhi Co along the southern edge, where the Bitterroot National Forest meets the Salmon National Forest. Notable clusters of alpine water like Thirteen Lakes and Three Lakes provide clear landmarks among prominent elevations such as Goat Ridge and Storm Ridge.
