2023 Map of Atlanta East

About this map

The settlement of Atlanta anchors the western edge of this Boise National Forest study, situated along the Middle Fork Boise River. This high-elevation mining and recreation landscape is defined by the steep slopes of the Sawtooth Range and the intersection of the Sawtooth Wilderness with the Sawtooth National Forest. Genealogists and local historians will find the Atlanta Pioneer Cem particularly significant, alongside reminders of the area's industrial past like the Monarch Mill Spur. The terrain is deeply carved by drainage systems including Queens River and Flint Creek, while thermal features such as Atlanta Hot Springs and Chattanooga Hot Spring highlight the unique geothermal character of the Idaho batholith region. Numerous forest trails, such as the Alturas Lake-Mattingly Trl and Middle Fork Boise River Trl, provide a network for exploring the high basins and peaks like Blizzard Mtn.
