1958 Map of Bennett Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The high desert and mountainous terrain of Elmore County are defined by the Boise National Forest and the towering peak of Bennett Mtn. In the late 1950s, this landscape supported a mix of ranching and early modern infrastructure, evidenced by Berry Ranch and the presence of a Radio Tower and Airway Beacon used for mid-century navigation. The region's hydraulic character is visible through several thermal and seasonal water features, including Latty Hot Spr and the Hot Sprs Creek Res. The drainage patterns of Bennett Creek, Ryegrass Creek, and Cold Springs Creek illustrate the watershed's complexity, while a prominent Pipeline cutting across the southern flats marks the era's industrial expansion through the high country. Isolated basins like Teapot Basin and open stretches such as Babs Flat highlight the varied topography between the mountains and the desert floor.
