2023 Map of Pioneerville

About this map

Pioneerville sits at the heart of the historic gold-producing Boise Basin, where narrow roads like Swede Creek Road and Henry Smith Whiskey Road snake through high-elevation terrain. This survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to its 19th-century mining origins, featuring the Pioneerville Cem and the remote Miner Grave near the South Fork Smith Creek. The drainage patterns of Grimes Creek and its many tributaries, such as Lager Beer Creek, define the topography between Wilson Peak and Coulter Summit. In the southern reaches, the location of the Mascot Mine and the Washington Mill near Washington Gulch point to the area's industrial past. Within the Boise National Forest, the map also details numerous ridgeline trails and summits, including Halfmoon Point and the expansive Summit Flat.
