2011 Map of Fourth of July Peak

About this map

Fourth of July Peak dominates this Teton County landscape, where the high ridges of the Big Hole Mountains meet the agricultural irrigation networks of the valley. In the northern reaches, the small settlement of Cedron serves as a focal point near the winding Patterson Creek and Grove Creek, while the presence of the Humble Canal, Spencer Canal, and Tonks Canal illustrates the managed water systems critical to this Idaho region. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, from the depths of Drake Canyon and Wood Canyon to the heights of Squirrel Mountain. For those interested in historical land use, the Walton Mine sits near the northwestern corner, and the southern portion of the map is defined by the drainage basins of the North Fork Rainey Creek and South Fork Rainey Creek. Recreation and transit are concentrated along the corridor of Pine Creek Pass, featuring the Pine Creek Campground and access to Nat Forest Develop Road 231 Rd.
