2020 Map of Dickey Peak

About this map

Dickey sits at the intersection of mountain geography and essential water sources in this Custer County corridor. The landscape is defined by the massive rise of the Lost River Range and the Pahsimeroi Mountains, with Dickey Peak serving as a primary landmark. To the northwest, Willow Creek Summit marks a significant high point overlooking the Thousand Springs Valley, where the hydrologic complexity of the region is evident in features like Thousand Springs and Thousand Springs Creek. Much of the eastern terrain falls within the Challis National Forest, while the valley floor is crisscrossed by historic routes such as Doublespring Pass Rd and Sage Creek Rd. The presence of numerous named water sources, including Scratching Post Spring and Poison Spring, highlights the critical importance of spring-fed water for ranching and travel in this arid upland environment.
