About this map

The Albion Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape, where the small settlement of Almo serves as a gateway to some of Idaho's most distinctive geology. Much of the western terrain is protected within the City of Rocks National Reserve and the Sawtooth National Forest, areas defined by unique granite formations and historical passage. The map reveals an intricate network of trails, such as the Stripe Rock Loop Trl and Indian Grove Trl, which wind through canyons like Emery Canyon and over landmarks like Pinnacle Pass.

Hydrological features including Graham Creek and Almo Creek flow toward the Upper Raft River Valley, supporting the ranching land visible along Big Cove Ranch Rd. In the southern reach, the Cedar Hills rise near Emigrant Canyon, a name that hints at the legacy of westward travel through these mountain gaps. The map serves as a contemporary record of this junction between preserved wilderness and rural ranching life.
