The map that accompanies the article is incorrect. Owl Creek is west of Shoop, ID, not in Loon Creek drainage.

Good catch and you're correct that Owl Creek is a few miles west of Shoup, ID. The pin was dropped on the map to just give a general location of the Salmon-Challis National Forest in Idaho, not the specific location of the trailhead/trail, my apologies for any confusion.

Sometimes we might be somewhat vague more or less on purpose and stick with just showing the general location or land management unit / agency in regards to the map - it is the Hunt for Owl Creek Hot Springs in this case, after all!
