2017 Map of Ola

About this map

Ola and the Ola Valley serve as the central hubs for this Gem County interior, where the landscape transitions into the southwestern reaches of the Boise National Forest. The map documents a network of narrow gulches and drainages, such as Currin Gulch, Fir Tree Gulch, and Whitlock Gulch, which feed into the prominent corridor of Squaw Creek. This area's topography is defined by significant elevations like Joes Butte, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure that supports the region's ranching and forestry heritage. The transportation network is anchored by the Sweet Ola Hwy, with various forest roads and lanes like Jacknife Ln and Perkins Ln threading through the foothills. Water resources are plentiful, evidenced by named features including Little Squaw Cr, Kennedy Cr, and Gold Run Cr, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns essential to the local valley economy.
