2011 Map of Edwardsburg

About this map

Big Creek Rd follows the winding path of Big Creek through a landscape defined by an intricate network of alpine drainages. This high-country environment in Valley County is marked by high-elevation water bodies like Bear Lake, Lick Lake, and Catherine Lake. The drainage patterns here are complex, with Little Marble Creek and West Fork Monumental Creek carving through the terrain, while smaller tributaries such as Jacobs Ladder Creek and Snowslide Creek feed into the larger systems. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a region largely defined by its natural water features and limited road access, providing a detailed look at the drainage basins before any further modern development altered the course of creeks like Bum Creek or Missouri Creek.
