2017 Map of Sydney Butte

About this map

Worswick Hot Springs and Preis Hot Spring highlight the thermal activity within the high-elevation landscape of the Sawtooth National Forest. This 2017 survey reveals a terrain defined by steep drainage networks and prominent peaks, including Sydney Butte and the northern reaches of the Soldier Mountains. Geothermal features are situated along the valley of Worswick Cr, while the surrounding slopes are carved by deep ravines like Wash Canyon and Mchan Gulch. The road system is dominated by forest development routes, such as Natl Forest Develop Road 227 RD, which follows the course of Little Smoky Cr. This map is particularly useful for understanding the hydrography of the region, tracing the headwaters of numerous creeks like Placer Cr and Grindstone Cr as they flow from ridges like Elk Ridge.
