About this map

Camas Prairie occupies a distinct topographic position within the Camas Prairie Basin, a high mountain valley defined by a network of drainage systems and narrow gulches. The landscape is characterized by a series of north-south running ridges that divide waterways such as Whiskey Cr and Camas Cr. Local geography is deeply marked by erosion patterns, visible in features like Big Gulch in the northeast and Racehorse Gulch in the southeast corner.

A complex grid of access roads, including Co RD 382 and Michel Creek Rd, connects the scattered homesteads and ranching areas of Sanders County. Significant elevation changes are noted between the valley floor and the surrounding high ground of Whiskey Gulch and Coppedge Gulch. The map also identifies the Ferry Crossing Basin 2000, suggesting historical or modern land management units within this high-altitude basin.
