2020 Map of Idaho City

About this map

Idaho City sits at the heart of the Boise Basin, a landscape defined by its long history of mining and forestry. The town's layout is anchored by the Boise County Courthouse and serves as a gateway to the Boise National Forest. Early settlement patterns are clearly visible in the presence of the Idaho City Pioneer Cem and the Old Gulch Pioneer Cem, alongside evocative place names like Boot Hill. The intricate network of waterways, including Mores Cr and Elk Cr, is augmented by historical water management features such as the Franer Canal and Mine Ditch, which speak to the area's industrial past. Numerous gulches like Charcoal Gulch and California Gulch radiate from the central valley, following the deep drainages that once drew prospectors to this mountainous region.
