2017 Map of Lowman

About this map

Lowman sits at the confluence of the Deadwood River and the South Fork Payette River, serving as a central point in this mountainous section of the Boise National Forest. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of Miller Mountain and Deadwood Ridge, where numerous spurs like Magnolia Mine Spur 1 and the Banner Mine Road suggest a history of resource extraction throughout the Banner Ridge area. Transportation in this era relies on the Idaho City-Stanley-SH21 highway, which follows the river's winding course. Notable landmarks for local recreation and history include Kirkham Hot Springs and the Clear Creek Overlook 1. The map also details a dense network of forest roads such as the Lowman-Bear Valley route, and the high-altitude Beaver Creek Summit, which marks a significant transition point in the local topography.
