2024 Map of Stroud Creek

About this map

Lemhi Range peaks dominate the southern half of this Lemhi County quadrangle, where high-elevation drainages such as Stroud Creek and Everson Creek flow through the Salmon National Forest. The landscape is defined by its drainage network, with Stroud Lake sitting at the head of its namesake creek, and several gulches like Bates Gulch and Jack Smith Gulch cutting through the northern slopes. This modern survey illustrates the current system of access into the backcountry, showing a network of forest roads and trails including Alder Creek Rd, Mill Creek Rd, and the Mill-Hayden Loop Wt Trl. These routes trace the historical paths through the mountains, connecting the water-rich canyons of Swartz Creek and Patterson Creek to the higher ridges. The inclusion of the Dairy Creek Trl and Everson-Creek Trl highlights the area's importance for local navigation and land management within the national forest boundaries.
