2020 Map of Warm Springs Point

About this map

Boise Basin geography dominates this portion of the Boise National Forest, where steep drainages and ridge-running forest roads define the landscape. The map showcases a network of named gulches and creeks, including Monazite Gulch, Hahn Gulch, and Deadhorse Gulch, which historically signify the region's mineral interests and ranching heritage. Significant topographic features like Casner Mtn and Warm Springs Point provide high-elevation landmarks overlooking the complex river systems of Grimes Creek and Mores Cr. A modern infrastructure of forest service routes, such as the Ponderosa Pine Scenic Route and the Ida City-Horseshoe Bend road, navigates the deep valleys. The layout of names like Milk Ranch Gulch and Stierman Gulch offers a glimpse into early settlement and land use patterns within this rugged Idaho interior.
