About this map

Inkom and Portneuf anchor this 2013 topographic study of the canyon country south of Pocatello, where the Portneuf River winds through a valley defined by the Pocatello Range. The landscape is a mix of high-altitude recreation and transit corridors, featuring the Caribou Ski Area and the Silver Sage Scout Camp in the northern hills. The southern reaches are dominated by the Caribou National Forest, where steep terrain leads to Indian Mtn and Chinese Peak.

Transit through the area follows the natural geography of the river, with Blackrock situated along the primary roads and rail lines. Named springs such as Munn Spring, Fort Hall Spring, and Morris Canyon Spring indicate the critical water sources for this arid region. The map also traces the complex drainage of the Portneuf River Slough and various canyon systems including Caddy Canyon and Fort Hall Canyon.
