1963 Map of Daniels

About this map

Daniels sits at the northern edge of this high-elevation Idaho landscape, where the Little Malad River is managed through a series of water control features. The Daniels Reservoir, held by Daniels Dam, serves as a central landmark for the surrounding terrain. Further south, the Elkhorn Dam and a nearby Gaging Station indicate the early infrastructure managing mountain runoff for the region's agricultural and ranching needs. To the west and south, the terrain becomes deeply etched by canyons such as Sublette Canyon and West Elkhorn Canyon, while the eastern boundary is defined by the Caribou National Forest. Local history is preserved in small details, such as a solitary Grave near Daniels Road and several gravel pits and a Quarry that reflect the localized extraction industry of the mid-1960s.
