2020 Map of Coonrod Gulch

About this map

Coonrod Gulch and the surrounding high country of Payette County define this landscape at the intersection of Washington and Gem Counties. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant drainage systems, notably Big Willow Creek and Little Willow Creek, which carve through the high elevations of Willow Ridge and Big Flat. Evidence of seasonal water management and grazing history is found in the distribution of named water sources like Mossman Spring and French Spring. The map reveals a remote geography of canyons and basins, including Davis Canyon and the Coonrod Basin. Grounded in the Public Land Survey System, the area is partitioned by township and range lines that intersect at the triple-county boundary, illustrating the administrative geometry applied to this corner of Idaho. Transportation is limited to rugged tracks such as N Crane Rd and Four Mile Rd, which follow the contours of the gulches.
