About this map

Brownlee Reservoir dominates the eastern boundary of this region, where the Snake River separates Oregon from Idaho. The landscape is defined by steep drainages and prominent peaks, including Sugarloaf Mountain and the deep cuts of Golden Goose Canyon and Black Canyon. The network of creeks—such as Connor Creek, Hibbard Creek, and Douglas Creek—draws a clear picture of the watershed as it feeds into the main reservoir.

Evidence of local habitation and land use is found at Tucker Ranch and the small settlement of Home near the water's edge. Genealogists and local historians will find the Hibbard Creek Cemetery at the southern end of the map, situated along Hibbard Creek Rd. High-altitude features like Sawmill Basin and Dean Pass suggest the area's history of timber work and early transit through this difficult terrain.
