2011 Map of Wylie Knob

About this map

Grouse Creek Falls marks a significant drop in the drainage system north of Gold Ridge, where the local terrain transitions between high points like Wylie Knob and Lightning Peak. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details a landscape defined by an extensive network of creeks, including the North Fork Grouse Creek and Rapid Lightning Creek. The presence of many specialized forest roads and named paths such as Namaste Path, Moonfire Rd, and Yellow Brick Rd suggests a modern layer of backcountry access and rural residential development within the timberlands. Notable landmarks like Box Cyn and Grouse Mountain anchor the geography, while the crisscrossing of Flume Creek Rd and Grouse Creek Rd illustrates the primary routes used to navigate this mountainous portion of Bonner County.
