About this map

Boise National Forest land dominates this high-elevation terrain where the boundary of Valley and Boise counties meets. The landscape is defined by the massive spine of Deadwood Ridge, which runs through the western half of the map, and the prominent peaks of Miller Mountain and Red Mountain to the southeast and east. The hydrology of the area is complex, with numerous drainage systems like Okeefe Creek, Big Spruce Creek, and Long Creek carving out steep canyons between the ridges.

A network of specialized forest service access roads, such as Blacks Creek Spur and several segments of Long Creek roads, provides the primary infrastructure for this remote mountain environment. In the far northwest, the N Fork Payette R cuts through the landscape, while naming conventions like No Man Cr and Stevens Point hint at the rugged isolation and history of the region's early surveyors and pioneers.
