2013 Map of Griffin Butte

About this map

The town of Ketchum serves as the gateway to the high-elevation valleys and gulches that characterize this portion of the Sawtooth National Forest. The map documents a landscape defined by its thermal features and outdoor recreation, with Guyer Hot Springs and Warfield Hot Spring located along the winding path of Warm Springs Cr. To the south, the massive profile of Bald Mtn overlooks the valley, while Griffin Butte stands to the north, separated by a network of drainage basins including Adams Gulch and Eve Gulch. Local transportation is anchored by State Hwy 75 running parallel to the Big Wood River, connecting the residential developments of the valley floor to the backcountry campgrounds and lakes such as Penny Lake and Dollar Lake. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the modern infrastructure and recreational sites supporting the region's mountain economy.
