About this map

Grover sits at the base of the Salt River Range, where the canyon-fed waters of Phillips Cr and Grover Cr meet the valley floor. This 2017 study captures the agricultural and residential character of the Star Valley region, showing the distinct transition from the irrigated bottomlands of the Salt River to the steep, forested slopes of the Bridger National Forest and Caribou National Forest. The landscape is defined by its deep drainages, including Bradshaw Canyon and Jensen Canyon, which have long influenced local travel and settlement patterns.

Local genealogy and history are well-represented by established sites like the Grover Cem and Turnerville Cem, as well as the small aviation hub at Heiner Airport. To the north, the community of Turnerville marks a quiet corner of the valley near Dry Canyon, while the northern edge of Afton begins to appear in the south. The map details a network of rural roads such as Bedford-Turnerville Rd and the Auburn-Forest Rd, reflecting the modern connectivity of these mountain-border communities.
