2013 Map of Ibex Peak

About this map

Ibex Peak rises as the central landmark within this portion of the Sawtooth National Forest, a landscape defined by high-elevation springs and rugged drainage systems. The presence of Frish Ranch and Emery Ranch reflects the traditional livestock grazing history of Cassia County, where water sources like Mabey Spring and Lone Pine Spring were vital for seasonal range management. Transportation through this terrain is dictated by natural gaps such as Beaverdam Pass and Daves Pass, which navigate between the high points of Joes Mtn and the numerous canyon systems. The map details a complex network of waterways, including the Right Hand Fork Beaverdam Cr and Carlson Cr, illustrating the vital role of riparian corridors in an otherwise arid high-desert environment during the early 21st century.
