2011 Map of Duck Creek Point

About this map

Duck Peak and the high vantage of Duck Creek Point anchor this remote section of the Salmon River Mountains. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainages that feed into larger western Idaho water systems. From the north, Yellowjacket Creek and Beagle Creek carve through the terrain, while the eastern portion of the map is dominated by the long course of Silver Creek. These waterways, including the descriptively named Slaughterhouse Gulch and Fourth of July Creek, trace the natural pathways through a region largely devoid of permanent settlements or major infrastructure. The prevalence of named forks and small tributaries like South Fork Cabin Creek and Rams Creek provides a high level of detail for those navigating the high country or researching local geographical nomenclature in Lemhi County.
