About this map

The Lemhi Range and Lemhi Valley define this section of Lemhi County, where high peaks like Sal Mtn and K Mtn overlook a complex network of canyons and creeks. Much of the southern and western terrain is protected within the Salmon National Forest, characterized by steep drainage systems such as Withington Creek and Cheney Creek. In the north, the landscape transitions toward the Lemhi River valley, where historical road systems like Hot Spring Rd and Lemhi Rd follow the natural contours of the land.

Local landmarks such as Salmon Hot Spring and Joe Moore Creek provide specific points of interest for those studying the geothermal and hydrological features of the region. The map documents a rugged landscape primarily shaped by natural waterways like Mulkey Creek and Baker Creek, showing the limited but vital access routes like Withington Creek Rd that connect the high forest lands to the river valley below.
