About this map

Pocatello Valley dominates the western portion of this Oneida County landscape, transitioning into the steep, deeply incised drainages of the Samaria Mountains to the east. The settlement of Ridgedale sits at a crossroads in the southern reaches of the valley, while the northern terrain is defined by the Pleasantview Hills and the strategically positioned Malad Pass.

A network of canyons, including Grover Canyon, Cub Canyon, and North Canyon, carve through the eastern heights. Water is scarce but noted at specific points like D H Spring and Dry Pine Spring, which feed into local systems like Samaria Creek. Evidence of historical land use is found in labels such as Mine Canyon, suggesting the importance of resource extraction in these upland reaches alongside the agricultural development of the valley floor.
