1972 Map of Big Grassy Ridge SE

About this map

North Junipers and South Junipers dominate the topography of this Fremont County landscape, revealing an environment shaped by volcanic activity and shifting sands. Located north of St. Anthony, the region is defined by extensive Sand Dunes and localized volcanic features like the Cinder Pits, which indicate the area's geological origins. The limited infrastructure of the early 1970s is represented by a network of unimproved routes, most notably the Red Road and the appropriately named Crooked Road. These corridors provided essential access through the high desert terrain for ranching or resource extraction. The presence of several Well sites across the quadrangle highlights the critical importance of water management in this arid Idaho backcountry.
