About this map

The Fort Hall Indian Reservation Boundary bisects this Idaho landscape, delineating a region defined by high peaks and an intricate network of mountain drainages. Dominating the topography are Garden Peak and Higham Peak, which serve as anchors for the surrounding ridges and canyons. The water system is particularly complex here, with the Blackfoot River winding through the eastern portion of the quadrangle, supported by seasonal flows from Cold Fork Creek, Wood Creek, and Deadman Creek.

Evidence of early movement and land management is visible through established routes like the Portneuf Presto Trail and the presence of the Little Indian Ditch. These features, alongside Wood Creek Road and Deadman Road, indicate a history of local transit and water diversion in a high-elevation environment. The map provides a detailed view of these natural and surveyed lines as they appeared during the late twentieth century.
