2013 Map of Horse Basin

About this map

Anderson Peak stands as the primary landmark in this high-altitude landscape of central Idaho, overlooking a series of distinct mountain depressions. The geography is characterized by these natural catchments, including Corral Basin, Horse Basin, and Spring Basin, which serve as vital collection points for seasonal runoff and perennial springs. The reliance on water in this arid upland is evident through the naming of specific reliable sources such as Horse Basin Spring Number 1 and Horse Basin Spring Number 2, along with Spar Mountain Spring and Douglas Spring. Drainage patterns flow through several named waterways, including Broken Wagon Cr and Corral Basin Cr. The only named transportation artery through the region is Road Creek Rd, which follows the southern drainage of Road Creek, connecting these isolated basins.
