2011 Map of Sixmile Point

About this map

Sixmile Point overlooks a drainage system defined by the Middle Fork Payette River and its numerous tributaries in this 2011 survey of Valley County. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of forest development roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 670 and Nat For Dev Rd 418, which provide access to high-elevation points and secluded recreational sites. Water management and recreation are central to the area, evidenced by the Herrick Reservoir in the north and several developed sites along the river corridors. The convergence of Sixmile Creek, West Fork Sixmile Creek, and Bacon Creek illustrates the complex topography of the Boise National Forest region. For those tracing the geography of Central Idaho, this map details the infrastructure used for modern land management and back-country access, from Trail Creek Campground to the depths of Rocky Canyon.
