About this map

The Challis National Forest dominates the northern landscape of this Custer County region, where high-elevation drainage systems like Summerhouse Canyon and Bear Canyon Creek carve through the terrain. The transition from these timbered slopes to the valley floor is marked by geological points of interest, notably Barney Hot Springs and Iron Springs. The southern half of the map centers on the Mud Flats Valley, a broad expanse defined by the meandering course of the Little Lost River. This area illustrates a mid-century pastoral landscape, where water management is visible through features like a Ditch and an Aband Canal. Settlement is sparse, represented by functional sites such as a Radio Facility and Campgrounds near Summit Creek, suggesting the area's importance for both resource management and remote recreation during the 1980s.
