About this map

Warm Springs Point dominates the high ground of the Boise National Forest in this central Idaho landscape. The map details a complex network of canyons and gulches within the storied Boise Basin, an area long defined by its mineral wealth and rugged topography. Local history is etched into the names of many drainage features, such as Monazite Gulch and Hahn Gulch, which often indicate early prospecting and ranching efforts.

Transportation through these steep grades is facilitated by winding routes like Grimes Creek Rd and Centerville Rd, tracing the paths of waterways including Grimes Cr and its many tributaries. From the heights of Casner Mtn to the secluded Rye Flat, the map illustrates a landscape of high-altitude forests and deeply carved stream beds, such as Deadhorse Gulch and Milk Ranch Gulch, essential for those tracing the land use and physical geography of this part of Idaho-Boise County.
