About this map

Challis National Forest dominates this section of Custer County, defined by a complex drainage network where numbered streams from Fivemile Creek to Twelvemile Creek converge toward the Yankee Fork. The landscape is etched with an intricate system of forest trails and primitive roads, including the Custer Trail Road and the McKay-Eleven Trail, which follow the steep contours of the Salmon River Mountains.

Remote water features like Milk Lake and Cinnabar Creek suggest a terrain largely shaped by high-altitude hydrology and historic resource access. The presence of the Yankee Fork Road and the East Mayfield-Yankee Fork Trail highlights the area's importance for transit through the mountainous backcountry, providing a detailed look at the geographic orientation of the region's watersheds and ridgelines.
