About this map

Boiling Springs and the Middle Fork Payette River define this high-elevation landscape within the Boise National Forest. The 2017 survey details a terrain dominated by steep ridgelines and a complex drainage network, where the waters of Silver Cr, Peace Creek, and Rattlesnake Cr converge. Cultural landmarks like the Silver Creek Plunge indicate the area's long-standing use for recreation and thermal spring access.

Transport through this part of Valley County relies on a network of forest roads and spurs, including the Pine Creek Loop and the Pine Creek Extension. Topographic features such as the Devil's Slide, Trail Creek Summit, and Rattlesnake Point provide critical navigational markers for backcountry travel. From the meadows of Onion Valley to the heights of Lightning Ridge, the map captures the wilderness character of the Idaho backcountry in the early 21st century.
