About this map

Moffett Springs marks a key water source in this high-elevation landscape of Custer County, Idaho. The area is defined by its complex drainage systems, where Summit Creek and Moffett Creek converge toward the Pahsimeroi Rd corridor. This 2011 survey reveals the infrastructure of the Salmon-Challis National Forest, including specialized forest roads like Mid 148 Rd and Summerhouse Canyon Rd that provide access to the surrounding peaks.

Prominent geographical landmarks such as Bear Mountain and Summerhouse Canyon dominate the topography, while smaller features like Horse Lake and its outlet, Horse Lake Creek, suggest the high-basin environment of the Lost River Range region. The presence of Sawmill Creek and Bull Creek indicates a history of resource use and water management in a region where these narrow riparian zones are vital for both wildlife and high-country travel.
