About this map

Boise National Forest contains a network of high-elevation meadows and vital headwaters within Valley County, Idaho. The landscape is defined by the convergence of drainage systems including Bearskin Cr and the larger Bear Valley Creek, which meanders through the southeastern portion of the map. This area serves as a significant backcountry corridor, evidenced by the presence of the Bear Valley Patrol Cabin and a series of named clearings such as Corduroy Meadows, Elk Meadow, and Crane Meadow.

Logistics and recreation in this part of the forest are anchored by Bear Valley Rd, which provides access to the Elk Creek Campground and Tennessee Creek Campground near the landmark Twin Bridges. The topography rises sharply toward the east at Bear Valley Mtn, overlooking the complex web of tributaries like Little E Fork Elk Cr and the aptly named Nameless Cr that feed into the region's major valley floors.
