About this map

Blowfly Creek and its many tributaries define the high-elevation drainage patterns in this corner of Custer County, Idaho. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of seasonal and perennial waters, including Bear Creek and the long course of Darling Creek, which flows past Red Butte toward the southwest. Human presence is concentrated around forest access roads like Morgan Creek Rd and Lick Creek Rd, which provide entry into the backcountry for recreational use.

Outdoor heritage is evident at the Blowfly Campground and Little West Fork Campground, situated near the confluence of West Fork Morgan Creek. Notable topographic landmarks such as Rye Grass Pinnacle and the depression of Eddy Basin serve as primary navigational points for those traversing the heights above Millick Gulch. The 2011 data reflects a modern era of forest management where logging and recreational trails often follow the same corridors as historical drainage routes.
