About this map

The Salmon River carves a deep path through this wilderness landscape on the border of Idaho and Lemhi counties. This 2024 survey depicts the protected reaches of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness and Salmon National Forest, where high-elevation landmarks like Square Top and Parker Mtn dominate the horizon. The river corridor is defined by significant navigational markers, including Gunbarrel Rapids and the confluence at Corn Creek.

Tracing the drainage networks reveals a complex system of tributaries such as West Horse Creek and Gunbarrel Creek that feed into the Salmon Wild and Scenic River. This map is a record of an extensive backcountry trail network, featuring routes like the Square Top-West Horse Trail and the Lower Salmon River Trail. Remote features such as Hidden Lake and Roan Ridge highlight the isolation and preservation of this interior Idaho terrain.
