About this map

Cold Mountain Ridge dominates the northern reaches of this Idaho interior, a high-elevation landscape where the Idaho Co Valley Co line marks the jurisdictional boundary between these central counties. The terrain is defined by the steep drainages of the Payette National Forest, including the headwaters of the South Fork Cottonwood Creek and the Crooked Fork. Deep in the southern portion of the map, the Frank Church - River of No Return Wilderness protects a vast network of canyons and peaks.

A clear intersection of aviation and remote backcountry is found at the Cabin Creek Landing Strip, located along Cabin Creek just north of its confluence with Big Creek. This map preserves the locations of established landmarks such as Blackburn Saddle and Vinegar Hill, as well as named basins like Towhead Basin and Browns Basin, which have long served as essential reference points for land management and wilderness navigation.
