2013 Map of Twin Springs

About this map

Twin Springs and its nearby Hot Springs center this high-altitude landscape where the North Fork Boise River winds through the Boise National Forest. The map documents a rugged section of the Boise and Elmore County border, defined by steep drainages like Logging Gulch and Slide Gulch. The N Fork Boise River Rd serves as the primary artery through this wilderness, connecting recreation sites such as Birch Creek Campground and Bald Mountain Campground. Numerous tributaries, including Sheep Cr and Alder Cr, feed into the river system, illustrating the complex watershed that characterizes this part of the Idaho backcountry. The mapping of Forest Service roads and landmarks provides a clear view of the area's development for recreation and resource management during the early twenty-first century.
