About this map

Taylor Mountain and the Red Hills anchor this high-desert Idaho landscape, where seasonal watercourses and gravel roads provide the primary landmarks. The terrain is defined by a series of drainage systems, including the long reach of Dry Creek and its southern neighbor Corral Creek. These intermittent streams dictate the movement across the quadrangle, with Dry Creek Rd following the natural contours of the valley floor.

Transportation in this part of Custer County is limited to a few arterial routes like Pahsimeroi Rd in the northeast and smaller tracks that navigate between the mountains. Small creeks such as Barney Creek and Summit Creek emerge from the slopes, illustrating the complex hydrography of the region before the modern era. The absence of permanent settlements highlights the area's use for ranching and resource management in the early 21st century.
