2020 Map of Bismark Mountain

About this map

Bismark Mtn and the surrounding high country of the Payette National Forest define this remote section of the Idaho landscape along the border of Idaho and Valley counties. The topography is dominated by dramatic elevation changes between high points like Diamond Point and Center Mountain and the deep drainage of Big Creek. The 2020 data highlights several areas of significance for local history and backcountry exploration, including the Monumental Bridge crossing over Monumental Creek and the named landing at Monumental Bar. Numerous seasonal and perennial waterways, such as Wild Horse Cr and Little Marble Cr, carve through the complex terrain of Ramey Ridge and Eightyeight Ridge. The map identifies specifically named local landforms like Carpenters Gulch and Bismark Basin, providing essential detail for navigating or researching the historic Salmon River backcountry region.
