About this map

Payette National Forest encompasses this high-altitude landscape in central Idaho, where the remote Chamberlain Basin serves as a primary geographical anchor. The area is defined by a network of meadows and ridges, including the evocative Meadow of Doubt and the expansive White Bird Meadow. Human presence is concentrated at the Chamberlain USFS Airport, a vital backcountry airstrip located near the confluence of Ranch Creek and Chamberlain Creek.

The terrain is dissected by numerous waterways such as W Fork Chamberlain Creek and S Fork Dillinger Creek, which drain from prominent heights like Hida Ridge and Artic Point. To the southwest, Flossie Lake provides a notable high-mountain water feature. This survey details the complex system of forest service routes and traditional mountain landmarks used for navigation in the wilderness long after the establishment of the national forest system.
