2011 Map of Langer Peak

About this map

Langer Peak stands as the primary landmark in this high-elevation landscape within the Salmon-Challis National Forest area. The drainage patterns are defined by a complex network of waterways, including Beaver Creek, Knapp Creek, and the southern flow of Valley Creek. Transportation through these mountain corridors is limited to a few established routes such as Seafoam Rd and Beaver Creek Rd, which trace the valleys and climb toward Vanity Summit. This 2011 survey captures the hydrological importance of the region, featuring high-altitude water bodies like Vanity Lakes and Eighty Two Lake. The map reveals how local geography dictates movement, with roads following the natural contours of creeks like Vanity Creek and Kelly Creek, illustrating the remote and specialized infrastructure required to navigate this portion of Custer County.
