About this map

Crane Creek winds through the heart of this Idaho landscape, carving deep relief into the surrounding terrain near the border of Washington County. This mid-1980s topography reveals a land defined by its drainages and high points, such as Bear Creek Summit and Sugarloaf. In the western portion of the sheet, the presence of Hot Springs and Dead Man Gulch suggests the complex geothermal and geological character of the region.

The central Nutmeg Flat provides a relatively level expanse amidst more dramatic features like Cougar Canyon and Star Butte. Man-made alterations are sparse, limited primarily to a Borrow Pit and a network of unimproved roads and trails that follow the natural contours of the creek beds. This survey captures a moment of quiet industrial and recreational potential, documenting the exact locations of remote water sources and peaks used for navigation and land management.
