1987 Map of Sturgill Creek

About this map

Snake River canyon walls define this rugged borderland between Idaho and Oregon, dominated by the expansive Brownlee Reservoir as it appeared in the late 1980s. The terrain east of the water rises sharply into the Payette National Forest, where high ridges are dissected by drainage systems like Sturgill Gulch, Garden Gulch, and Limestone Gulch. On the Oregon side, the landscape is marked by unique topological features including Coyote Flat and the confluence of the Powder River. The map provides a detailed view of the drainage patterns and spring locations, such as Andrew Spring, which were critical for livestock and land management in this remote high-desert environment. The network of gulches and creeks, including Quicksand Creek and Lick Creek, illustrates the complex erosion patterns and natural pathways through the canyon country.
