1953 Map of Boiling Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Boiling Springs serves as a central landmark in this 1950s study of the Valley County backcountry, where the Middle Fork Payette River winds through the prominent North Fork Range and Boise Ridge. The map documents a landscape defined by geothermal activity and Forest Service infrastructure, featuring the Boiling Springs Guard Station, Bull Creek Hot Springs, and the Silver Creek Guard Station. In the western portion, the small settlement of Alpha is situated near Round Valley, marked by the Alpha Cemetery and a local Grange hall. This edition is particularly useful for identifying the complex system of peaks and summits, such as Silver Creek Lookout and Skunk Creek Summit, which provided critical vantage points for fire observation and backcountry management during the post-war era.
