About this map

Thousand Springs Valley defines the central geography of this mid-century survey, showing a landscape defined by water management and high-altitude ranching. The small settlement of Dickey serves as a focal point in the valley, surrounded by a network of water infrastructure including multiple Water Tanks and a Well. The map illustrates the hydrological importance of the region, featuring several water sources such as Scratching Post Spring, Poison Spring, and Thousand Springs, which feed into Thousand Springs Creek.

To the east and west, the terrain rises sharply into protected lands and high peaks. The eastern boundary is dominated by the Pahsimeroi Mountains and the Lost River Range, culminating at Dickey Peak. These slopes are part of the Challis National Forest. Notable transit markers include Willow Creek Summit and drainage systems like Sage Creek and Willow Creek, providing a detailed look at the rural Custer County landscape during the late 1960s.
