2017 Map of Brundage Mountain

About this map

Payette National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape along the intersection of Idaho, Adams, and Valley Counties. The 2017 survey reveals a complex hydrological network managed for both natural preservation and utility, centered around the Brundage Reservoir and the prominent Brundage Mountain. The terrain is defined by massive formations like Granite Mountain and Slab Butte, which separate various drainage basins. A legacy of water management is visible in the presence of the Campbell Ditch and several concentrated alpine lakes, including Goose Lake, Twin Lakes, and Duck Lake. Access to this back-country is facilitated by a network of established routes such as Hazard Lake Rd and Goose Lake Rd, which navigate the steep gradients surrounding Goose Creek. This map illustrates how the mountain landscape has been adapted for recreation and resource management while maintaining its character.
