About this map

Kendall sits at the foot of the eastern slopes of the North Moccasin Mountains, serving as a central point of interest in this Fergus County landscape. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainage patterns, most notably Mason Canyon and Sennett Canyon, which carve through the high ground towards the valley floors. Water distribution is key to the area's character, with multiple tributaries like Box Elder Creek and Last Chance Creek illustrating the watershed's complexity.

The northern reaches of the quadrangle are dominated by the branching paths of Middle Fork Salt Creek and East Fork Salt Creek. To the south, a distinctive high-altitude meadow area known as The Park contrasts with the sharp relief of Iron Gulch. This 1985 provisional study captures the geographic arrangement of the region's foothills and canyons just as they were documented in the late 1970s, providing a clear view of the relationship between the mountain peaks and the creek systems below.
