About this map

Payette National Forest dominates this section of the Idaho backcountry, where the Rapid Wild and Scenic River carves a deep path through the western terrain. The landscape is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, notably at Pollock Mountain and the steep incline of the Devils Ladder. A complex network of pack trails, including the Pollock Mountain-Cow Camp Trail and Lonesome Ridge Trail, provides the primary access to high-altitude landmarks like North Star Butte and Chokecherry Flat.

Hydrographic detail is significant, with numerous seasonal and perennial flows such as Sinking Creek, Ant Basin Creek, and Pony Creek draining the slopes of Brush Mountain. For researchers and historians, the map preserves the exact alignment of remote Forest Service routes such as Smokey Boulder Road and the North Star Trail, documenting the continued management and recreational infrastructure of this protected wilderness area.
