About this map

Crouch and the nearby settlement of Garden Valley occupy the northern reaches of this Idaho survey, where the Middle Fork Payette River winds through the valley floor. The community’s heritage is preserved at the Garden Valley Pioneer Cem, situated north of Schoolhouse Gulch. This terrain is defined by the significant confluence of river systems and steep ridges, with the South Fork Payette River cutting through the center of the quadrangle.

Logistical and recreational access is highlighted by the Garden Valley Airport and the transition into the Boise National Forest at the southern boundary. Steep elevations such as Bald Mtn and Little Bald Mountain overlook a complex network of drainage creeks, including Station Creek and Coski Cr. The map captures a landscape where river-bottom settlements are closely hemmed in by protected forest lands and prominent features like Wash Creek Ridge and Mineral Mtn.
