About this map

The Saint Joe River valley defines the southern portion of this Idaho landscape, where the settlements of Herrick, Erlmo, and Marble Creek are situated along the water's edge. This area, managed as part of the St. Joe National Forest, reveals a history of land use focused on recreation and forestry. Multiple sites like CCC Campground, Big Creek Campground, and Huckleberry Flat Campground indicate the importance of the river corridor for public access. North of the river, the terrain rises sharply toward prominent points such as Sheep Butte and Drive Point.

A network of forest roads, including Big Creek Rd and Cemetery Ridge Rd, provides access to the interior highlands. Named peaks like Cameron Hill, Daugherty Hill, and Maternity Hill offer local orientation among the many drainages, such as Francis Cr and Black Prince Cr. The presence of the Big Creek Cabin and the remnants of the Civilian Conservation Corps era point to a legacy of forest management and public works in Shoshone County.
