1978 Map of Hopper Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Sawtooth National Forest and the Minidoka National Forest State Bird Sanctuary dominate this portion of Idaho, characterized by a complex network of springs and drainage systems. Water sources are critical landmarks in this arid landscape, featuring named points such as Fourth of July Spring, Nelson Spring, and Soldier Spring. The terrain transitions into the Shoshone Basin to the south, where man-made infrastructure like a spillway and a Landing Strip indicate localized water management and remote accessibility. Traceable land use is evident through the scattered corrals, a Gravel Pit, and Alvins Well, reflecting the ranching and resource extraction needs of the era. The presence of numerous jeep trails underscores the remote nature of the Hopper Gulch area, providing a window into how these high-elevation forest and basin lands were navigated and utilized during the 1970s.
