About this map

Newman Peak rises as a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape within the Sawtooth National Forest. The map documents a rugged wilderness defined by its network of drainage systems, including the S Fork Boise River and its numerous tributaries such as Emma Creek and Paradise Creek. Access through this backcountry is primarily served by unpaved routes like the Natl Forest Develop Road 80 Rd and historical paths such as the Tip Top Mine Trail and Ross Fork Horse Trail.

A notable human imprint in this otherwise undeveloped terrain is the Southfork Airport, providing an essential aerial link to the remote region. Other features like Jones Bar and Mill Canyon suggest a history of early use, while several designated land parcels, labeled with PB prefixes such as pb39, indicate specific administrative or survey blocks. The presence of Headquarters Camp Creek reflects the operational infrastructure required to manage these vast national forest lands in Camas County.
