About this map

White River National Forest lands dominate this high-altitude landscape of the White River Plateau, where intricate drainage systems and forest service infrastructure define the backcountry. The map details a complex network of equestrian and hiking routes, including the Spring Creek Trail 2068.1 and the Boiler Creek Trail 1843.1, which navigate the steep transition from Clinetop Mesa down toward the valley floors.

Hydrological features are central to the terrain, with isolated water sources like Boiler Spring, Third Set Spring, and Bearwallow Spring providing critical waypoints for those traversing the high ridges. Significant peaks and landmarks such as Flatiron Mountain, Tibbetts Ridge, and Spring Hill overlook the headwaters of Canyon Creek and East Elk Creek. This survey captures the region's character as a managed wilderness area, highlighting the intersection of named geological formations like Burnt Ridge and the specialized forest service trails that provide access to remote locations like Adams Lake and Bugle Lake.
