1968 Map of Cache Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Cache Peak and Mount Independence dominate this 1960s survey of the high-altitude terrain in the southern Albion Mountains. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology and dramatic elevation changes, notably around the Independence Lakes and the granite formations of the City of Rocks National Reserve and Castle Rocks. Evidence of early twentieth-century land use is visible through numerous named springs such as Salt Lick Spring, Sanford Spring, and Logger Spring, which supported livestock and seasonal activity within the Sawtooth National Forest. Significant mountain passes, including Basin Elba Pass and Stines Pass, connect the high ridges to the surrounding valleys, while the network of drainages like Mill Creek and Almo Creek illustrates the vital water sources in this part of Cassia County.
