About this map

Stanley Lake and its surrounding high-altitude drainage systems dominate this Boise County landscape. The area is characterized by a dense concentration of glacial lakes and dramatic vertical relief, with notable summits such as Mount Regan, Thompson Peak, and McGown Peak rising above the watershed. The map records the intersection of outdoor recreation and historical resource extraction, evidenced by the clustered Stanley Lake Campground, Lake View Campground, and Inlet Campground near the water's edge, contrasted with the Greenback Mine located further south along Stanley Lake Creek.

Hydrological features are particularly detailed, showing the descent of water through Bridal Veil Falls, Lady Face Falls, and Goat Falls. The network of creeks, including Crooked Creek and Valley Creek, illustrates the complex flow patterns of the Sawtooth range. This survey captures the terrain as it appeared in the early 21st century, mapping the established trail systems and access points like Iron Creek Campground that facilitate movement through this complex alpine environment.
