About this map

The South Fork Salmon River carves through the central corridor of this high-elevation Idaho landscape, defining the topography between the Payette Nat For and Boise National Forest. High above the river valley, the Lookout Thunderbolt 8654 stands on Thunderbolt Mountain, overseeing a network of drainage systems including Mirror Creek and Nickel Creek.

Recreational development in the late 1980s is centered around Warm Lake, where the Shoreline Campground, Picnic Point, and Warm Lake Lodge Campground cater to visitors. The map reveals a transition from these developed lakeside facilities to more primitive access points like the Penny Spring Campground and the Pack Trail system. Significant elevation changes are marked by features such as Paradise Valley and the isolated Roaring Lakes in the northeast corner.
