About this map

Boise National Forest land defines this landscape in Elmore County, where the South Fork Boise River feeds into the sprawling Anderson Ranch Reservoir. The map illustrates a complex network of forestry and access roads, including the Meadow Creek Loop and Lake Creek Road, which navigate the high-elevation terrain between House Mtn and Granite Mtn.

Settlement patterns are concentrated in open basins such as Wilson Flat, White Flat, and the edge of Little Camas Prairie. Water sources like Daveys Spring and Light Spring are vital markers in this high-country environment. The intricate drainage systems of Myrtle Cr, Castle Cr, and Fall Cr suggest a landscape used for seasonal grazing and timber management, while the numerous spur roads point to active land use within the national forest boundaries.
