2014 Map of Connor Creek

About this map

Snake River frontage and the steep drainages of the Baker and Washington County line define this portion of the Oregon-Idaho border. The landscape transitions from high points like Sugarloaf Mtn down through dramatic erosional features such as Black Canyon and Golden Goose Canyon. Historically, the area reflects a mix of high-country resources and river-bottom utility, with Sawmill Basin and Quaking Aspen Flat suggesting early timber or grazing activity in the uplands. Near the southern edge of the map, the Hibbard Creek Cem serves as a small but vital landmark for genealogists and local historians, situated near where Hibbard Creek flows toward the Snake River. The map also details the significant footprint of the Brownlee Reservoir, which dominates the canyon floor where the river narrows between the two states.
