About this map

The Salmon River carves a dramatic path through the southwest corner of this Idaho landscape, featuring the notable Snow Hole Rapids and the depth of Long Canyon. This area, situated along the border of Lewis and Idaho Counties, showcases a rural transition from high-plateau agriculture to steep river breaks. The settlement of Westlake sits near the northern boundary, connected to the surrounding countryside by a network of named tracks like Haas Ranch Rd and Keuterville Rd.

A tangible link to the region's transport history is found in the traces of an Old Railroad running through the northern sections, suggesting a time when rail was central to the local economy. In the western reaches, the small area of Oxbow overlooks the river's bend, while numerous drainages such as Maloney Cr, Willow Cr, and Deep Cr dissect the terrain, defining the natural boundaries of the local ranching and milling operations indicated by routes like Hussman Mill Rd.
