About this map

Cuddy Mountains dominate this high-elevation landscape along the border of Adams and Washington Counties within the Payette National Forest. This modern survey illustrates a complex network of drainage systems and high-country landmarks, including the prominent Crooked River Point and the dramatic topography of Devils Slide. Water management and natural catchment are central to the area's geography, evidenced by the Hornet Reservoir, Lower Hornet Reservoir, and the isolated Rush Lake at the headwaters of Rush Creek.

The presence of numerous Forest Service routes, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 055 Rd and Natl Forest Develop Road 048 Rd, highlights the transition from early timber and resource management to modern recreational and ecological conservation. High-altitude clearings like Olive Meadows and the broad expanse of Big Flat provide distinct reference points for understanding the diverse montane terrain that characterizes this portion of the Idaho panhandle's southern reaches.
