2013 Map of Dairy Creek

About this map

Dairy Creek and the surrounding drainages of Bannock County and Oneida County define this high-desert landscape in southeastern Idaho. The map reveals a transition from the complex terrain of the Caribou National Forest in the east to the western elevations of the Pleasantview Hills. Local water sources are critical features of this environment, noted through named sites such as Little Malad Spring and Cowley Spring. A network of rural ranching roads, including Daniels Ranch Rd and Harold John Rd, connects the scattered canyons and peaks. The topography is deeply carved by numerous named drainages, including Mine Canyon, Harold Johns Canyon, and Tom Perry Canyon, while Mt Elkhorn stands as a prominent landmark in the southwest corner. The intersection of county lines and forest boundaries illustrates the management of these rangelands and protected forest territories.
