2011 Map of Long Gulch

About this map

The South Fork Boise River carves a deep path through this section of Elmore County, defining the drainage patterns for numerous tributaries including Big Fiddler Creek and Wood-Cabin Creek. High points like Krall Mountain and Flatiron Mountain overlook a landscape shaped by forest management and recreation. The presence of the Elk Creek Exclosure suggests focused wildlife or botanical study area near the headwaters of Elk Creek. Access to the backcountry is provided by a network of forest routes, most notably Blacks Creek Rd and Slide Gulch Rd, which lead travelers toward the Rattlesnake Campground and the namesake settlement of Long Gulch situated along the river's bend.
