About this map

Wildhorse serves as a lone named outpost in this high-elevation Idaho-Oregon borderlands region, situated just east of the Oxbow Reservoir on the Wildhorse River. The landscape is dominated by the steep rises of the Cuddy Mountains, reaching a high point at Cuddy Mtn, and much of the area falls within the management of the Payette National Forest. This 2013 survey illustrates a transition from the deep waters of the Snake River canyon to the high, forested plateaus and basins typical of the Pacific Northwest's interior.

Water plays a central role in defining the geography here, with a complex network of creeks like No Business Cr, Willy May Cr, and Edna May Cr carving through the terrain. Notable landmarks such as Summers Point and Lost Basin provide orientation points for those navigating the backcountry. The map also delineates the jurisdictional intersection of Baker County in Oregon with Idaho's Adams and Washington Counties.
