2011 Map of Meadows

About this map

The settlement of Meadows serves as the focal point of this western Idaho survey, situated near the headwaters of the Little Goose Creek and the West Branch Goose Creek. This high mountain valley, characterized by distinctive terrain such as Moorehead Flat and Meadow Hill, reveals a landscape defined by ranching and winter recreation. The Meadows Valley Cemetery stands as a significant site for genealogical research, while further south, the Payette Lakes Ski Area marks the region's importance as a recreational hub. To the east, the map traces the drainage of Williams Creek toward the North Fork Payette River, passing through Copeland Flats. Hydrological features like the Hancock Dam and Payette Lake Dam illustrate the historical management of water in these high-altitude basins during the early 21st century.
