About this map

Wapshilla Ridge and the high elevations of Craig Mtn define this section of the Idaho highlands within Nez Perce County. The settlement of Zaza serves as a central landmark for this upland territory, which is characterized by a complex network of drainage basins including China Garden Creek and Captain John Creek. The geography here transitions from open meadows such as Benton Meadows and Larabee Meadows in the north to the sharp descent of Cave Gulch in the south.

Transportation through this high country is limited to winding mountain routes like Zaza Rd and Corral Ck Rd. These paths navigate the steep terrain toward prominent overlooks like Frye Point, which offers views over the tributary canyons of Eagle Creek. This 2020 record captures the area's contemporary landscape of remote ranching and seasonal grazing lands, as evidenced by named water sources like Roberts Spring.
