About this map

Hungry Rock stands as a central landmark in this high-elevation wilderness within Idaho County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and mountain drainages. The area is characterized by dramatic topographic features such as Bailey Mountain and Fox Peak, which overlook a series of small, isolated bodies of water including Hungry Lake, Isaac Lake, and Porphyry Lake.

The hydrology of the region is oriented around several key waterways like Warm Springs Creek and the North Fork Moose Creek, which carve through the high ridges. This 2011 survey illustrates a terrain largely untouched by modern infrastructure, where travel is dictated by natural corridors such as Warm Springs Pass. Geologists and backcountry researchers can trace the intricate connections between Saturday Ridge and the various creeks, including Double Creek and Maple Creek, that feed the larger river systems of the Idaho interior.
