1987 Map of Hopper Creek

About this map

The H-I Mountains dominate this landscape, rising within the Payette National Forest during the late 1980s. This interior Idaho region is defined by a complex network of drainages and high ridges, where water sources like Looney Spring provide critical points of interest in the high country. The map traces the descent of numerous gulches and creeks, including Fairchild Gulch and Two Tree Gulch, as they feed into larger systems such as Hopper Creek. Toward the southern edge, the terrain levels slightly into the Shoe Peg Valley, where Keithly Creek and Dry Creek converge. The cartography reveals a remote landscape utilized for its timber and watershed value, captured here before modern digital updates changed the visual language of the forest service and topographic records.
