2024 Map of Higham Peak

About this map

The Blackfoot Mountains dominate this portion of Bingham County, where the topography transitions between high ridges and deeply incised creek drainages. The settlement of Alridge sits along the eastern edge of the map, positioned near where Cedar Creek meets the Blackfoot River. This area is defined by its network of high-elevation routes, including the Portneuf Presto Trail Rd and Cold Creek Trail Rd, which navigate the complex terrain surrounding prominent summits like Higham Peak and Garden Peak. Water sources are critical in this landscape, marked by features such as Cove Spring and the converging branches of North Fork Cold Creek and South Fork Cold Creek. The presence of the Little Indian Canal Rd in the northwest suggests the ongoing management of water resources for the lower-lying lands beyond the mountain front.
