About this map

Payette National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape along the border of Idaho and Valley counties. The topography is defined by the headwaters of numerous drainages, including Steamboat Creek and Warren Creek, which flow through steep gulches and around prominent peaks like Steamboat Summit. The administrative boundary between the McCall Ranger District and the Krassel Ranger District bisects the southern portion of the sheet, cutting through terrain that transitions from dense creek networks to upland clearings.

Evidence of resource exploration is visible at several points, with a Mine and Prospect marked in the northern reaches near Halls Gulch. Distinctive local landmarks like Keystone Meadows and Pony Meadows offer a contrast to the surrounding ridges, while secluded water bodies such as Steamboat Lake, Bear Lake, and Blue Lake sit tucked within the higher elevations. This map captures the remote character of the Salmon River mountains before modern developments altered these interior drainages.
