About this map

Challis National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape of central Idaho, where the Salmon River and the East Fork Salmon River carve through the mountainous terrain. The map highlights the complex drainage systems of the area, featuring Sullivan Lake in the north and the recreational corridor around Jimmy Smith Lake, which includes the Jimmy Smith Lake Public Fishing Area.

Tracing the topography reveals significant landmarks such as Potaman Peak and the prominent Railroad Ridge to the south. The distribution of water resources like Big Lake Cr, Sullivan Cr, and Potaman Cr illustrates the watershed patterns within the national forest. High-elevation features like Calkins Gulch and Dry Gulch define the rugged character of this part of Custer County as it appeared in the early 21st century.
