About this map

The Middle Fork Payette River and its confluence with the North Fork Payette River dominate this portion of the Boise National Forest during the late 1980s. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevations such as Lightning Ridge and Pyle Creek Point, providing a glimpse into the recreation-focused land use of the era. Public access is highlighted by the presence of Hardscrabble Campground and Tie Creek Campground along the river banks.

A Golf Course sits near the junction of Easley Creek and Warm Springs Creek, indicating localized development within the canyon floor. Numerous small drainages, including Bear Wallow Creek, Scriver Creek, and Gooseberry Creek, cut through the forest, illustrating the complex hydrology that defines the Boise and Valley county line. This provisional survey captures the intersection of forestry management and early modern outdoor recreation infrastructure.
