About this map

Pahsimeroi Valley serves as the central corridor of this Idaho landscape, where the Pahsimeroi River meanders along the border of Lemhi and Custer counties. This high-desert valley is flanked by the towering heights of the Lost River Range and the Pahsimeroi Mountains, creating a dramatic contrast between the irrigated agricultural floor and the surrounding mountain slopes. The small settlement of May is the primary hub, supported by the May Airport and a network of local thoroughfares like Main St and Hooper Ln.

A system of lateral creeks, including Patterson Cr, Sulphur Cr, and Morse Cr, flows from the mountains to feed the valley's drainage. Notable landmarks of local industry and infrastructure include the Pahsimeroi Hatchery in the northern reach and the Old Hwy, which hints at earlier transportation routes through the region. For those tracking land use and family history, the map details numerous named roads such as Whitworth Ln and Dowton Ln that partition the valley floor.
