2013 Map of Loon Lake

About this map

Secesh River and its many tributaries, including Whangdoodle Cr and Grimmet Cr, define the drainage patterns through the high elevations of the Payette National Forest. This 2013 topographic study highlights the importance of the Warren Wagon Rd as the primary artery through the remote wilderness of Central Idaho, crossing the boundary between Idaho Co and Valley Co. Large meadow systems such as Secesh Meadows and Stratton Meadow provide distinct breaks in the forest cover, while Loon Lake and the Chinook Campground serve as significant recreational landmarks for those navigating the backcountry. The map also records early land divisions through numerous Private Boundaries, such as PB 40 and PB 38, which contrast with the surrounding public forest lands.
