2020 Map of Phifer Creek

About this map

Weatherby USFS Airport serves as a remote aviation landmark along the Middle Fork Boise River, marking a point of access within the protected expanse of the Boise National Forest. The landscape is defined by the convergence of steep drainages, including Swanholm Cr and Phifer Cr, which feed the river system from high ridges. To the south and east, the terrain rises toward the Trinity Mountains and West Warrior Peak, highlighting the elevation changes that characterize this part of Elmore County. The presence of Atlanta Road provides the primary overland route through the valley, tracing the river's path and connecting this area to the broader region. This modern topographic record details a network of named streams like Black Warrior Cr and Hot Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology that continues to shape the river canyon.
