About this map

The settlement of Ketchum sits at the eastern edge of this landscape, where the Big Wood River flows past the base of the mountains. This 2020 survey illustrates the extensive recreational network within the Sawtooth National Forest, specifically centering on the terrain around Bald Mtn and Griffin Butte. The map details a complex web of modern trails and access roads, including Adams Gulch Trail, Forbidden Fruit, and the Bald Mountain Perimeter.

Thermal features like Guyer Hot Springs and Warfield Hot Spring are located along Warm Springs Cr, highlighting the area's geological activity. The drainage patterns are clearly defined through numerous gulches such as Moonlight Gulch, Alturas Gulch, and Cold Spring Gulch. This edition serves as a contemporary record of the intersection between the resort community and the protected forest lands, tracing the paths that connect the town to the summits and springs of the Wood River Valley.
