2017 Map of Stanley Lake

About this map

Stanley Lake sits at the northern edge of this high-elevation landscape, where the Challis National Forest, Boise National Forest, and Sawtooth National Forest converge. The topography is dominated by the jagged spires of the Sawtooth Range, featuring prominent summits such as Mt Regan, McGowan Peak, and Thompson Peak. This high-country survey documents a complex network of glacial basins and alpine water bodies, including Sawtooth Lake and the smaller Hanson Lakes. Drainage systems like Stanley Lake Creek and Crooked Creek carve through the steep terrain, while landmarks such as Lady Face Falls and Bridal Veil Falls denote significant drops in the watershed. The map provides a precise record of the remote boundary between Boise County and Custer County as it follows the high ridgelines.
