2014 Map of Buck Hollow

About this map

Sawtooth National Forest dominates this landscape along the state line where the Albion Mountains descend into the Upper Raft River Valley. This 2014 survey documents a rugged transition zone defined by numerous isolated water sources such as Sparks Spring, Boundary Spring, and Bronson Spring, which historically supported livestock and early mountain passage. The geographic complexity is highlighted by the Upper Narrows of the Raft River and the high peaks of the Raft River Mountains to the south. Local transit is centered on the intersection of Lynn-Almo Rd and Yost Flats Rd, connecting the scattered drainage basins of Lynn Cr and Junction Cr. The map captures the remote character of the Buck Hollow region, where topographic features like Little Basin and Rocky Canyon shaped the early ranching and grazing patterns of this Idaho-Utah borderland.
