About this map

Payette National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape in Adams County, defined by a complex drainage system feeding into the Little Weiser River. This 2024 survey captures the intricate network of forest development roads and primitive trails that provide access to the high-elevation terrain of the West Mountains. Notable landmarks like Potato Knob and Burnt Basin rise above the deep cuts of King Hill Creek and its various forks.

The presence of naming conventions like Telephone Spring, Telephone Creek, and Telephone Draw suggest the historical importance of early communication lines through these mountains. Local history and geography are further etched into the land at King Hill and along the paths of the Indian Mountain/Fall Creek Trl and Grouse Creek Trl. The map details the transition from the high ridges down to the South Fork Grays Creek and Dry Creek in the southwest corner.
